Heading South of the Border (Travel from Home #19)
In January, I headed south of the border for my fake travel trip—not to the South Carolina attraction, but to my own fake Mexico experience at home. I had a nice, enjoyable trip to start the calendar year off right.

The Concept of 'Time' Seems to be Different Here in Costa Rica. .
Alarm clocks and calendars. . both necessary items for most people in 2022. We are guided by seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months and years. Our future plans are laid out in a fashion that have been with all of us for hundreds of years! Even before the adjustable alarm clock was invented in 1847, we all still, as a society, relied on natural ways to plan our days, weeks and months ahead. Whether we measured time by the rising of the sun, the phases of the moon and / or the alignment of the stars and planets above, knowing where you were in the entire realm of life was so very important and necessary. Julius Caesar even used a calendar that guided him and the masses for many years.
