Jake's TWO!




Okay, so I couldn't post yesterday because the cable that brings our internet to us was torn down by the vegetable truck as it passed underneath.  We may have been able to get it fixed quickly, but it seems the cable company only has one line, and it was busy for two days.  I love Costa Rica. Eventually, the guy that comes to collect for the cable company came by (glad it was that time of the month), and he was able to contact someone.  Cool.  We're back online.  

Had a cool evening last night.  Jake and I celebrated his birthday last night by sharing a beer (see the picture) as I tended the bar.  I'm still looking for a bartender, and in the meantime, I've been picking up the shifts.  Mama, a wild macaw who comes to visit every once in a while, came in last night and again this morning.  Glad I ordered some extra cherries. 

A swell came in today.  Waves rocked.  I got out for about an hour today, caught some nice ones, and ended on one of the best of my short career.  It's absolutely amazing how great it feels during and after a good session, and generally all sessions are good.  

My awesome brother signed papers on my house today, which means it's very likely I'll actually be able to sell it before my bank account runs out of money.  I'll actually lose a bit on the sale, but it keep me from foreclosure.  Hopefully my car will sell at some point too.  Mike, THANK YOU. 

I've realized that I am not sure who will end up reading these posts, but it's kinda neat that it will be good practice in showing myself how honest I am actually comfortable being with the world.  I think it will be good to see how many things I choose not to post, and recognition of why will probably teach me a lot about how I feel about the things that I do, think, or feel. 

I'm off to help at the bar, and then head up Canada Hill for a gringo BBQ with some friends.
