The Lo de Marcos Town Plaza

Lo de Marcos is a small, welcoming town known for its pristine beaches and relaxed pace of life. Tucked between palm-covered hills and the Pacific Ocean, it offers a true taste of Mexico—far from the crowds of the bigger tourist destinations.

Here’s an AI-generated description I felt captured it beautifully:

Why Lo de Marcos Stands Out

  • Authentic Vibe: A traditional Mexican town with colorful buildings, a central plaza, and a warm local community.
  • Peaceful & Uncrowded: Home to stunning beaches—Los Venados, Las Minitas, and El Atracadero—perfect for swimming, surfing, and soaking in sunsets.
  • Walkable: Easy to explore on foot; golf carts and bikes are popular for getting around.
  • Local Amenities: Filled with eateries, organic markets, artisans, and charming accommodations.
  • Ideal Location: Situated in the Riviera Nayarit, just north of San Pancho and south of Guayabitos, within easy reach of Puerto Vallarta.

Happy Autumn from Puerto Vallarta!

This is Important in RV Water Heaters, Too!

Jon Diagnosing the Problems with the Water Heater

Why did our hot water run out in less than five minutes? I hate having to rinse the shampoo out of my hair with cold water!

We had hot showers, but only for a few minutes, then the water turned cool. So, the water heater worked, but not correctly. Jon was on a mission to diagnose the problem and repair it. This ten-year-old Calorex water heater (called a boiler in Mexico) was a good-quality unit, and he did not want to replace it. Repairing it would save a lot of money, he was sure! It turned out to be multiple problems, but all were solvable for reasonable prices.
