“Hand me those snacks!” This was my husband’s request not because he was hungry, but because there was a defiant horse blocking the rolling, winding and bumping dirt road that leads to the Viento Fresco Waterfalls, which flow roughly halfway between Arenal and Monteverde. But alas, that horse had no interest in plantain chips and … More Adventures in Driving (More from CR)
Winter is nuzzling its way onto my dusty plot of Earth, though not via temperature drop. The time has changed — and times have changed — and darkness is bearing down. I am thus grateful to be going closer to the equator than I’ve ever been, with 12 hours of daylight in the land of … More Finding My Way Home
After years of kinda, sorta thinking about going to Costa Rica, the trip is booked! It had always seemed too complicated, with sprawling itineraries inevitably causing an exhausting vacation.

With our Mountaineers playing at Austin soon, and having family in nearby San Antonio, we couldn’t find a reason not to go. I’ve heard nothing but … More Trippin’ to Texas

My state of weather confusion is topped only by our daffodils, who exposed themselves in February only to be shamed back into their robes first by March, and then again by April. As an … More Less Freeze, More Trees (Camping Plans!)
