The outskirts of the Capitol, San Jose – sprawl and deforestation
Rivers meandering from jungle to coast

First sunset
My little casita in the jungle
Waking to the view of the jungle from my bed

My desk on the porch
The view of the cove from my writing desk

Hoping my clothes will dry before they mildew
Playing guitar with the jungle pirate
My turtle friend
Gangster breaking into kitchen
Harper on a shopping trip to the big town of Palmar Norte two hours by boat and bus away
Waiting for the boat back home
The mangroves along the Rio Sierpe
Shrimp trawling in protected waters
On a lonely day…a gift
Blessed shade
Heading for a sunset swim
Capuchine resting after its mischief
Storm-driven waves
Going to school Osa Style

Howler monkey
Jungle beauty
A needed rest at Sirena Ranger Station
Evening colors from the kayak
Absolute serenity
The closest market – two mile walk away
Along the coastal trail to town
A swinging (and creaking) bridge along the way
The reward for the two mile walk to town
Another perfect day ended

Las Caletas Lodge – a piece of paradise
Whiling the afternoon away in the hamock
Waiting for the first star
