Success in Liberia!
Was able to get sheets for $30 a set...
Not so good for Halloween though!

Was able to find candies but zero on the decor and costume front...will see what I can put together...

Finishing packing and heading over to new place to do a quick cleaning and start moving in!!!!

October 25

Well...never made it to Nicoya the other day...So going late this am after opening the bakery today.
I have decided to put off the windshield repair for a while as the crack is on the passenger side and my RTV annual inspection is not due until August and to pass a good windshield is required...
So later for that!
Still have to go run errands in Nicoya thought today!

Next week San Jose!

Well my wish came through! It cleared up around lunch time!
So Brenda and I went and walked all of Carrillo Beach there and back and then went for a swim in the pool (Brenda doesn't like to swim in the ocean!)
Working early shift today at the bakery and then looking forward to going to see a new band in town have their debut at Zen Den this evening, I think everyone will come out to support them!

Well back in business today!

Xinia came in at like 2am so by the time I got here at 7am most everything was up front and ready...
Sent her home before 9am...

Pretty quiet around town but hopefully people come out LOL

October 6

Spending the day doing absolutely nothing! Last day of vacation for a while!

Finished my 3rd book that I have read during the vacation

October 5

EEEWWWWWW!
That fridge was Gross!!!!!!!

The girls did most of the cleaning as I had to run into Nicoya to get the fridge serviced as it is still under warranty...Service is 8 to 10 days, bloody AWESOME!!!!!

Went to Arno's for dinner and to Hula for a couple of beers

October 4

Trip to Nicoya was uneventful... Same detour as last year when the same bridge was out

When I got back to Samara, popped into the bakery to drop off some purchases only to find my less than 1 year old fridge in the kitchen died probably the day after we closed two weeks ago! Smelt like we were storing dead bodies!!!
Was not prepared for this mess so returned in the morning with the girls to get in cleaned up

Headed for Zen Den for some afternoon cocktails with the First Fridays gang. Awesome turn out!

October 3

Well! Hello October, lots of rain this week...figures I am off!

Been chilling, reading a few books, which is nice since I don't always get a lot of time for reading...

Tomorrow off to Nicoya to drop off paperwork at accountant's and run a few errands, trip will take longer as a bridge about half way in a town called Camithal that washed away about a year ago and was replaced washed away again!
Awesome construction!!!!
Tomorrow afternoon going to Zen Den for First Friday with Arno & Brenda, look out! LMAO
