Yesterday morning, we had our alarm set for 5:00 a.m., for our trip to San Miguel de Allende. Sam woke up around 3:00 a.m., and was cold. She got up and checked the temperature on the thermostat. She was right! The temperature was 5 degrees lower than it should have been. Of course, Sam now had a dilemma. Should she wake Bob? Bob was sound asleep and very comfortable. Or should she just ignore the problem and go back to bed? She decided to wake Bob. He wasn't a happy camper, but he was a trooper. He got up played with the thermostat and finally got the furnace back on. While working with the thermostat, he did break off some of the connectors to the batteries (they are just for back-up). Now what do we do? Bob wrote a long email to his brother and neighbors begging for their help. We know the problem is in good hands thanks to Tom and Stacy!
Just as we were leaving, we had snow flurries. It was enough snow for us for the season. We can't say it is enough for the winter because it is still fall. I guess we'll say it is enough for the season. At the airport, they de-iced the plane. It was great to land at the airport in Mexico City. We had a great flight. It was wonderful to walk outside in warm weather.
More later.
Oh my how quick the Zimmermans in Michigan season passed us by! I hope you have another amazing winter in Mexico. As fortunate as you are to make this your tradition, the residents are even more fortunate to have the two of you there making a difference in the future of our youth!

I'm very happy you arrived safe and sound. You did leave just in time to avoid all the nasty weather .... today was very cold, and we had snow flakes falling and blowing all day. Nothing stuck to the ground, but it was miserable. I know you will have an awesome time in Mexico. Take care and keep blogging so we can all follow your adventures.
