We retired to the beach in Mazatlan, Mexico in the summer of 2006. After a few years, dividing our time between Mazatlan and Yakima, we are now back in Yakima year round for a while. We are waiting for the cartel violence to improve in Mexico and hoping one day to return to our relaxed beachbum life. Until then we will enjoy the Yakima Valley and all that it has to offer and being near our families once again.
