It's the holiday long weekend but the rain has returned. The extent of our travel consisted of a trip to the Superstore in Coquitlam for groceries. So as well as the typical errands of a Saturday, I had more than enough time for Internet browsing. I've been in a Jimmy Buffet kind of mood for the entire wet winter (which just won't quit). In fact, it may have started before last spring's trip to Mexico.
You know what they say about real estate: location, location, location. I had no idea that so many folks from up and down the left coast own places further south along it. The picture is on the hillside in the Romantic Zone of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Snuggled along the hillside, and within a short walk to the beach, is this apartment complex. I would love to have a place here to escape to as we approach an early retirement. Unfortunately, just as with prices along the entire coast, there have been no reductions stemming from the global economic slowdown of recent years. As I said to a Realtor, I wish I had been in the market back before the 1990's. As always, I'm at least a day late, a dollar short, and a beer behind.
