I love my work for Cabo Living magazine, for a few reasons. The biggest reason is the people I get to meet. Here's my recent article on a hidden gem in the Los Cabos area, called Cabo by Horseback. Check it out. Cabo by Horseback_CL-Spr25Download
Reflections on a Decade
The close of 2024 is an opportunity for me to reflect on a fairly momentous decade. No, it’s not the typical end of a decade, like when we rolled over to 2020, or will in 2030. But for me, the fall and winter of 2024 and into 2025 marks 10 years of significant life changes. ... Continue Reading →
I Got Pickled!
I first tried pickleball while visiting the beautiful Gambier Island, BC. It's happened. I've been pickled. This past winter, I finally tried the fastest growing sport in North America - pickleball. Here's what you need to know: In 2023, the Sports & Fitness Industry Association declared pickleball as America’s fastest-growing sport for the third year... Continue Reading →
Paddle Boarding Part 2
My latest article for Cabo Living magazine focuses on stand up paddle boarding, a personal passion of mine.
Paddle Boarding Adventures
Sometimes a familiar activity opens the door to new experiences. Paddle boarding has become familiar to me over the past number of years in Mexico. But each trip out into the Sea of Cortez seems to bring new adventure. Just last month, we stopped to snorkel and besides seeing so many beautiful fish, there were... Continue Reading →
Love to Garden: Mushrooms

It's exciting to start something from seed and watch it progress, to the point of harvesting it to eat or simply marvelling at the colours of the blooms. But I didn't know I could grow mushrooms at home. At... Continue Reading →
A Salad So Good, I Ate The Bowl
Don't read this and think. "Oh sure, she's eating a salad again," because here's the cold, hard truth. I'm snacking. A lot. I also seem to have a sudden affection for all things made with dough: biscuits, dumplings, pasta. And then there's the baking. I don't bake! Now I'm baking. I blame the pandemic, but...

Because I Can
“I move because I can.” I remind myself of this when I’m out for an enjoyable walk, or sweating through a not-so-enjoyable workout. It’s my mantra when I go for a run, or have to carry heavy groceries, or do yard work, or vacuum. It’s a good reminder to be grateful for a body that... Continue Reading →
Feeling Powerless
We had an interesting experience last week. A massive storm nearby, which fortunately didn’t impact our community directly, knocked out power to a large area. That impact did include our community and surrounding area. When it first went out in the evening, we expected it back on quickly, as usually happens. Not this time. It... Continue Reading →
Paddleboarding on the Sea of Cortes
There’s no better way to start the day than floating on the beautiful waters of the Sea of Cortes. I’m fortunate to be able to paddleboard regularly in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, located on the southern tip of Baja California. Mar de Cortes is also known as Sea of Cortez, and is named after the...
