In Mexico, Christmas is celebrated from December 12th to January 6th. That is why the gorgeous tree at the Nueva Posada hotel in Ajijic was still up when I went there to read poetry yesterday. So glad as I forgot my camera the last time I was there. This is the display beneath the tree. I’ll post the tree on Thursday.








A trellis covered with Thunbergias and bougainvillea give me my privacy from my neighbors, whose house is built much higher in the air than my own.
