Welcome to the very first post in our new Corozal Bay Resort / Podzun Family Blog. This is something completely new to me. So here goes... We are working on our new sign on the roadside. Some people had commented that they would drive past our resort and miss it because we had only a small sign and they would not see it. So we decided to build a better sign. This one will be large, attractive and illuminated at night.
35 years ago my Mom (Lottie Podzun) sculpted a couple of Mayan heads out of concrete. These heads were located on the veranda of the second floor of my parents house, overlooking the front yard. When they sold their house and moved back to Canada, the new owner removed the heads and was going to throw them away. We got them and had the heads laying around the yard for years. While our mason was laying the blocks for the new sign we discovered a great place for the heads. We decided to place one head on each side of what will be our new sign.
Here is a picture of one of my Mom's Mayan heads that was just attached to the sign and Maria enjoying it's shade.
Here is another photo of our full time construction guy Ronald, cementing the head on to the sign.
After 35 years my Mom's Mayan head have finally found a great new home.
