One Month Till The "ER's"

Almost to the home stretch.......we just need to get through August and we hit the "ER's".  September, October, November and finally 28 days of December.

Sorry for the delay on this weeks post.......a Trojan took down our computer on Friday.  Even living the simplist life off the grid, we will need our computer.   In Zancudo our computer will be our telephone, our mail service, our television, our means to pay bills and most important a way of seeing our children, grandson, family and friends through Skype!  So, now I have to remember to do a back up every month on my external hard drive just in case of another Trojan attack..........I'd rather face the crocodiles of the Rio Coto!

On the brighter side, we celebrated our 35th Wedding Anniversary on Sunday, July 31, 2011.  A few tears of joy and a few tears from anxiety and again, I bring this up.........changing a lifestyle certainly isn't as easy as just getting on the plane with your packed bags.  This week our list grew once again........both of our drivers licenses expire in 2012 and we were lucky since you can renew 6 months before your birthday.  Sherry just made it under the wire by 14 days.  Is it worth it......I question myself.....day after day..... and the one thing that always stays constant is our support for each other on our journey and the life on Playa Zancudo, Costa Rica.  It should be somewhat of a very colorful life as you can tell from the picture below........



No,  someone did not spill several different colors of paint on the Eucalyptus tree.  It is a variety that grows in the rainforest of Central America.  We took this picture at a botanical garden outside of San Vito,
Costa Rica in February of this year.  It is amazing how colorful the bark of this tree is. 
Pura Vida!
