It looks like we’ll be spending a month this summer in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico! I’ll be working half-time and taking some vacation time – I already have a photo essay lined up for our industry magazine – Doors & Hardware. We’re so excited! I’ll be using this page to organize some information about places we might want to visit. Pictures of the house we’re planning to rent are at the bottom of the page.
