Stark Insider

Another wonderful day in the sun and humidity, but the humidity is down quite a bit today. I wish I'd brought my camera to the beach as Mandy found two Italian Greyhounds to play with. I'm not certain how she did it, but those little legs actually...

We're finally back in Loreto. It was an interesting trip this time. We thought we'd found great tickets at less than half the normal price. SFO to Cabo. We planned to stay overnight at Los Patios near Costo then drive north the next day. ...

Guest post by Jane Lurie. Impossible you say? Well here are some highlights: We were up to enjoy that delicious morning air. Sharon's project was to grout the cracks on the deck. Mine was to hop on my bike and go to the gym...this is considered a job because I will...

Guest post by Jane Lurie. We were blessed by the unexpected arrival of a beautiful spirit at our home earlier this week. A 1 1/2 year old dog named Pup has been wandering the streets and fields of Loreto Bay and all of Nopolo seemingly most of his life. He...

Guest post by Jane Lurie. A baby hummingbird has been in our back courtyard all day. He has been hopping around one of our chairs and flying to our more aromatic plants. Near our home, our neighbor Bruce H. discovered a hummingbird nest in a tree with a baby in...
