We only strung lights on the oaks that Irma knocked down, along with several hundred feet along the trails out back - http://www.starznbarz.com/Photography...

Man, it would take a LOT of lights to decorate them there trees! :)

Thank you so much; and it is good to have allies.

My parents moved there (Belize) in 2014 and I went to visit them for a couple of months in 2015. I loved it so much I bought 3 acres just outside the capital of Belmopan. I plan to retire there and just live a nice quiet life with little to no political Bull Stuffing like we get force fed with here. I figure it this way, I would rather live in a 3rd world country that I know is corrupt instead of a first world, corrupt country that is working hard to become a 3rd world country. I figure with all these other country's citizens trying to come here, their countries will be cheap and clear of citizens.

Thanks, glad you like the site. Weve been here almost 30 years, they are building all around us, but because we are grandfathered in and own the road, we can hold them off some. Spent 2 years in the North Colo. mountains on a jobsite in the early 80s, best trout fishing on the planet, but way too much snow for me. I`ve seen some of Belize, took a tourist bus to the Mayan ruins on the coast several years ago, beautiful place.

We get a truck down our road now and again, but the very talented and ballsy county chopper pilots usually do us from the air. We shot some stills for their website several years ago, part of me wants to ask for a ride along and part of me says pukin in the chopper is bad form. http://www.starznbarz.com/Business/On...

Looks like a cool place to call home there Starznbarz. Nice photography also. Out here in the ABQ, it is 50's during the day and 20's at night. No snow (yeah), which is great with me. I grew up in Wisconsin and lived in Colorado, so I have had more than enough snow. Add in 2 years stationed in Iceland, 6 years in Idaho and 4 years in northern New Jersey and you can see why I am eventually moving to my property in Belize. Cold and snow is nice to look at in the news and on pictures but I don't want to live in it anymore.

My bright Christmas came at daybreak but it clouded up again at 1 PM. Sigh!
It's pretty outside right now.
It's been just below 32 at night and above 42 during Christmas day.
When cold air was pushing rain through here you could walk outside in a short sleeve shirt--with an umbrella.
Cold air kills skeeters even in Alabama.

Our area of Florida has trucks that spray for skeeters about once per month. It is in the mid 70's today here in Florida, even a few degrees warmer than where you are, starznbarz.

YW, Just upgraded my old drone with a new one, technology - and price, have made great strides since my first one.

Spent a few Christmases in the cold country, I`ll take the skeeters.

-9 below zero with wind chill -24 no mosquitos it is brisk but with proper attire no problamo.

You too, from mine.

It's been rainy and/or dreary here in neighboring Alabama for far too many days with weather only Morticia Addams would like.
Right now on Christmas Eve it's overcast and drizzling droplets you can't see.
But the forecast for tomorrow Christmas Day is SUNNY! Yay!
Makes me feel like breaking out into song~

I'm dreaming of a bright Christmas
Just like the better ones I've had before.

Enough of that. Never had a white Christmas. Don't want one.
Alabamians don't know how to drive in snow. Car crashes are all over the place. I've seen it.
Cops don't even come. They just park some place safe for out of the way and keep warm with the engine running.
And me dino don't need some yahoo scoring a telephone pole and knocking my power out. Brrr!
Also, relatives and myself will want to drive to a Christmas party late Christmas afternoon.
Merry Christmas, y'all.

Thank you. (Impressive overhead shots. Your cherrypicker?)
