Likes

Mexico, dogs, the dimpled man I married, gardening, reading, writing, travel, cooking, killer Hearts, poker, any game that requires lying, drag queens, ocean breezes, moonlight, coffee, snorkeling, kayaking, wildlife, birds, laughing, irreverence, people.

Dislikes

Rigidity, judgment, critical natures, racism, sexism, most of the -isms and -phobias, US popular culture, meanness, cruelty. Well who wouldn't dislike those things? I am more ambivalent about television and I do ~ as a result of my own critical nature ~ judge those who tell me they don't need to read the book because they've seen the movie.

About me

We're Mike & Lynette, planning to move to the Progreso area within the next 6-12 months. Presently live in Tulsa. Mike's retired. Lynette has an antiques business. Tired of the rat race.

10/17/2009 22:37:07 Hi Lynette, No, we are just wanting to construct something new, and transition into living here seasonally, rather than full-time.

08/19/2009 23:45:50 Hi Lynette, No, we bought a house in Chelem. I think the pictures you are thinking of are here: http://www.droppedin.com/archive/2009/03/09/renovating-our-beach-house-volume-5/ Let me know if you have any further questions!

Hi Lynette,

We bought our house in May and are really excited. We are originally from KS but now live the summers in CO. We will be in Chelem for the winter starting around the first of December. You can't miss our house, it is the bright orange house with the bright blue dome just as you are coming into Chelem. Stop in and have a cold drink. My in-laws lived in Mounds, OK and the summers there were brutal.

Funny you ask that about the heat -- a lot of people don't get it, but what I have told many people here who talk about the heat is -- we got virtually the same kind of heat -- about the same temps, and, just as importantly, the same kind of humidity, around Tulsa, so it is not that shocking to us; the difference is, Tulsa gets it for about a month or so at the peak of summer, while it lasts 4 or 5 months here.

Still no electricity, but we are staying with friends and things are ok for now. Could they be better? You bet, but hey, this is Mexico, stuff happens.

02/03/2009 13:00:07 We're from Tulsa . . . moving to Chelem this summer with our two daughters, closing on our house, in fact, in a few weeks. It's exciting!

Hey Linette...I am from OKC! I have a place in Chuburna on the water. Lots of constant maintenance required when you are right on the water, so be prepared for that. Even one block back...or even the other side of the street can make a tremendous difference. If you are set on hanging in your hammock with a view of the water like me, then go for it. If it isn't that big of a deal for you, then I would go for off the water...should be a bit cheaper.
