Tenses are Tricky

As of today, Hobbes is in Cabo San Lucas! So, I have made some progress writing the book. But, I discovered, tenses are tricky--I have Hobbes writing in the past and present, so I have to decide how to do this. Does he write as if he is writing a diary at the end of the day or as he is doing things? Also, getting the pictures takes time. What I would really like to do is print all of them, there are dozens, and then choose. But I did take notes on the trip and that does help the writing. It does bring the trip back, and makes me want to travel again, soon!
