Unfortunately, from my perspective, the major presentations totally missed the mark of their subject matter and I wasn´t able to add significantly to my knowledge in writing a memoir.

Several weeks ago I was relaxing at a new location on Los Muertos Beach enjoying a refresca and watching the local people frolicking on the beach in beautiful 80 degree weather, and I heard a voice asking the question “what´s the allure here?

Retirement From Where I Sit: It Is What It Is!
http://robertosveranda.blogspot.com/2015/07/it-is-what-it-is.html
Retirement From Where I Sit. Wednesday, July 29, 2015. It Is What It Is! It’s been a different type of summer in Puerto Vallarta. The summer rainy season seems to have just gotten underway the past two weeks, finally cooling the late night/early morning temperatures into the high 70´s (76-78). However, daytime temps are still reaching the low 90´s F with “Feels Like” temps of up to 118F. The swimming pool feels like a bathtub, but, it´s wet! VIVA PILITAS I and II…! It is nice being in PV at this time.
