Feeling Free
Joy to Steve: I am enjoying where I am and the feeling of freedom to be anywhere and choose where that is. I hope you are too. I definitely wouldn’t choose Nicaragua. It’s just not my thing to be so primitive if I don’t have to be. I wrote Robbie a birthday note and said […]
Every Day Is An Adventure
First, let me say you know quite well that every day, no matter where you are, is an adventure. Each day of our lives is numbered and we don´t have that many. But this is elementary, as you know. The place that is central to my stay is the Campo. Foot paths in green mountains. […]
Along The Path
To Joy: These multiple e-mails give me a chance to say, multiple times, ‘I love you’. I like that. I have pictures but not many yet. I do not like to show my ‘stuff’. Not because of fear but these people are so simple it seems, even without showing what I have ……well it is […]
In A New Place
( I don’t think I sent this one yet from a few days ago) Long Day, I started out with 12 dreams, each between the rooster’s call. One, I remember well, trying to get somewhere (as usual) and passing 2 foot tall praying mantis fighting giant spiders. Vivid. I like the rooster’s call. It’s kind […]
Saturday (in the park)
To Joy: It is beautiful here, so green where I am staying, in the mountains. I am staying with a very nice family of 2 grandparents, mother, 3 sons and a beautiful 19 year old daughter, not 13 as I thought. They put me to shame! They get up at five thirty in the morning […]
I’m Here
Too much to tell ! I am lying in my room at last with a storm brewing out, wooden shutter window wide open with the smell of fresh rain, wood smoke from the dinner stove and the oh so fresh green mountain air. Thursday night, I guess, just dark (the computer says 7:30) The walk […]
Parting Shot
I suppose Steve is sitting around in Miami by now. Airplanes are great time-savers for international travelers, but then again having to go with the airlines’ schedule means wasting time at the airport. I got back to the house way before his airplane to Miami even arrived in Houston. Seeing him all ready to go […]
Leaving on a Jet Plane
I am off to Nicaragua! Why? That will be explained in a not too distant future post (when I have time to think about it). Truth is there are many reasons. Adventure. Opportunity. Challenge. Escape. Education. These, at least, apply. This, the night before my flight, I feel what I imagine an astronaut feels as […]
