Lunch with friends at this place called “La Casa del Antojitos”.. I loved how they capped my sandwich spears with strawberries slices. They also added a couple of blueberries to my limonada. Nice little details. #rosarito #antojitos #baja #lacasadelantojitos

It might be time to remind our weather what November usually looks like.. as we fade into the grey today. Brr. This is what November looked like last year! #sunsetphotography #baja

It’s called Castillo del Diablo, or the Devil House. Owned and curated by an eclectic American from LA. There are lots of YouTube videos about it. The front facade jams up traffic during summer months, it’s such a spectacle. #castillodeldiablo #baja #photography

Yesterday was our “search day” for local veggie distributors, to do this thanksgiving food project. We walked through outdoor street markets, as well as a segundas, as well as the veggie distributor area. Random… but this photo was my takeaway from the day. hah #disorganization #ocd #ensenada #baja

My little black Olive passed peacefully in her sleep last night. She was part of our family for nineteen years. I rescued her in California, prior to my folks adopting her to New England. She was still looking fabulous at 19–I didn’t even know kitties could live that long. RIP Olive. 🖤 #furryfamily

I arrived home tonight, just in time for this. The afterglow was beautiful too. #beachlife #sunsetphotography #baja

Paragliders descending towards the beach; also known as los parapentes. You can pay to fly tandem with a pilot. It’s really beautiful up there, and you’ll forget about whatever you were preoccupied with, prior to jumping off the edge. I’ve gone a few times and highly recommend it. #parapente #baja

Looking east—across the valley of La Misión. The man selling firewood has a beautiful view from his backyard. #lamision #baja #landscapephotography

Happy Halloween weekend, y Feliz Día de los Muertos! Wishing you all a safe and fun weekend! O.. una fin de semana recordando a los que perdimos. 🤍 I’ll be over here enjoying my new stack of wood. 🔥 #beachlife #baja

I had a truckload of wood delivered yesterday. In hindsight, I wish they had stacked it farther away from my back door. I knew there may be bugs.. but didn’t expect anything like this! 😨 Now I’m scared to see what else is coming my way! (This one got relocated to heaven.) #bugsofbaja #baja #mexico

Smart & Final Mexico had these itsy-bitsy bananas! It said they’re imported from the state of Colima. Look at how cute they are! #baja

Yesterday was Día de las Mascotas, Day of the Pets - a remembrance day for our deceased furry friends. My neighbor gifted me two beautiful arrangements. One for my chihuahua, Sadie. The other for Tomas, my big grey hunter kitty. I lost him this past August unexpectedly. It was a very sweet gift. 🤍

Apparently I have black aphids—I found ‘em this morning. Oh yay. *rolls eyes* That same hibiscus plant also has ants on its blooms. #plantphotography #bugphotography #gardening #baja

Step one: full screen. Step two: volume on. Step three: BREATHE. *Repeat as needed.

Wishing you all a peaceful evening; hoping this helps.
