Party Party

Labor Day weekend last year we had an amazing party here in the park as we all got together one last time before everyone started heading out our seperate ways for the  “second summer”.

We did it up even better this year, with 40 something of us all got together, probably with enough food to feed the entire city of Hamilton, lot’s of games, great conversation and maybe even a few pops.

Obviously the questions on everyone’s minds are “when are you leaving?” and “where are you going? Florida, Texas, Arizona and Mexico will be well populated again this year.

We will all leave 50 Point with fond memories of our Summer Friends and look forward to our return next April or May.

Safe Travels everyone.

Classic Retreat

We met Bob & Marjorie last winter at Tres Amigos on Isla de la Piedra. Turns out their home is in Toronto, about 45 minutes from 50 Point, where we summer.  Over the course of the winter we shared a few cool ones, hung around a bit and became very good friends.  We travelled out of Mexico together and have got together 3 or 4 times since we got back.

This weekend we were invited to their “Summer Cottage”, on an island (called Robert’s Island) near Honey Harbour north of Toronto.

Some Cottage! And what  a fun weekend!

Check Out The Smile

 

Meet our bud Bonita of  Pender Harbour. Just look at this lady. Now look beyond the icing. Check out that smile. Yeah, tonight she’s enjoying her birthday party but that grin is permanent. We’ve only known her for a couple of months, but I’m sure we have never seen her without that smile.

We had a little shindig  to celebrate her 39th with about a 16 of her closest local friends last night.

Same routine as usual: Water taxi to downtown Mazatlan, jam 14 people in a little red truck designed to carry max 10, ride to restaurant, a couple of drinks, way too much food, repeat red truck and repeat water taxi back to Stone Island. Rest.
