hi world, I just thought you should know that Jane Bocker, my friend and graphic artist, is the bomb. If you need anything in this area, Jane is your girl. Check out the sign she just made for me today-Its so much cleaner and nicer to look at than something I’d make. I’m putting this A-frame sign in front of the surf camp so people can see that they can stay in a tiki room …
Jim H, I read your comment from a few days ago, I’m really happy to think about you reflecting over Panama. I’ve been through Puerto Almuelles, briefly on my way to the tip of the Burrica Peninsula where you can only pass with 4×4 on low tide. It is truly a destination for a select few, most people will never get to experience anything like it.
I’m starting to get a routine down. Otis wakes me up around 6:30am and wants to sing Old MacDonald. Then I instruct him to go play with his toys as Daddy is still sleeping. Happy is probably awake and playing on the rug with his toys while Holly fell back asleep again on the couch. I wake up fully soon thereafter and emerge to Discovery Kids on TV. Please God give me coffee and patience. …
Being back at the camp has been a total trip. I’m sitting upstairs in the skybox on the new Ikea rug Holly brought back with her. I’m tripping out that Happy can sit up on his own now. When he left he couldn’t do that, and Otis couldn’t say his ABCs or count to ten in english or spanish. Whoa. Time is flying by quicker and quicker. It has been nice to hang out with …
Yes, I’ve been very much missing in action. I’m still trying to figure out what just happened. I mean, I know what happened because I was there, but still it seems all a blur now. All I know is that I’m really exhausted but in a really good way. I went surfing a couple of hours ago here in front of the surf camp and my arms feel dead. I have a huge grin on …
OK I will get some photos onto the blog soon enough, but let me sum up what has been going on: today is Monday, we set off on last Friday, we’ve surfed Playa Hermosa and Dominical before getting to Pavones on Saturday. The swell filled in yesterday and Pavones was a SOLID 2-4 foot overhead on the sets. It was firing, probably the best waves I’ve ever seen there. I had some great waves, it …
I’m leaving for Panama in 7 hours. The boards are packed, now I need to throw some clothes and other random items in the truck and be done with it. I’m leaving the surf camp to my trusted staff, assuming they will do the best that they can. If I return and find it to be anything like Colonel Kurtz living in the jungle of whereverthehell he was, I’m going to be pissed. No chopping …
