Beaches, Pools, Restaurants, Luxury, and the Best Vacation Experiences By RickkciR | October 2026 If you've followed my blog for any length of time, you already know one thing about me: I LOVE MEXICO! 🇲🇽🍹🌴 Give me sunshine, beautiful beaches, excellent restaurants, cold drinks, great service, and a gorgeous resort, and I'm a happy camper! Over the years, my wife Lucy and I have enjoyed some fantastic vacations throughout Mexico. As members of Unlimited Vacation Club (UVC), currently at the Impression Black membership level , we've had opportunities to experience several beautiful Secrets resorts. And naturally, people ask me: "Rick, which Secrets resort is your favorite?" That's not an easy question! Some have incredible beaches. Others have spectacular swimming pools, outstanding restaurants, or breathtaking ocean views.

  Mother Nature Still Makes the Rules I saw this observation today and had to laugh. After all the predictions, models, arguments, regulations, taxes and political debate surrounding climate and weather, Mother Nature continues to remind us of something pretty basic: We don't control the weather.

Feeling honored... Can be a lil tough to read sometimes.. so ... The Association Spotlight — Rick “Rickkcir” Lossner CVMA® TX 23-11 — Audie Murphy Chapter Twenty years in the United States Air Force gave Rickkcir a career that covered a little bit of everything. He started in Security Police in the missile field before moving into Electronic Warfare and Airborne Maintenance. After two years of technical schools, he found himself working and flying on aircraft and missions that included the RC-135 Rivet Joint and Comfy Levi C-130.

Not long after returning to the United States, Southwest Asia came calling in August 1990. Between 1990 and 1995, he wou...
