Fields upon fields of huge coconut palms

This week our niece Summer came to visit us. It is always great when we have guests because it gives us a good reason to do some exploring that we otherwise put off due to our projects at the property. Our friends Dan and Theresa spontaneously changed their plans and we all went together to Aguadilla and Wilderness. The day was gorgeous and every picture we took looked like a postcard. We explored the Ponderosa Lighthouse ruins for a while and then we found a great little beach cove where we set up for some snorkeling, paddleboarding, swimming and sandwiches. It was an awesome day!

The dirt road we took. Good thing Dan had a 4×4 truck!

The ruins of Faro La Ponderosa. What a cool place! The style reminded me of the Nunn Schoolhouse

Group photo!

Ok, another!

Ahoy! I have landed

Garza and palms -there is a reason it is called “Wilderness”

We found this beautiful spot  with Flamboyans in bloom and the snorkeling was awesome!

Fantasy island with lots of hidden coves

There was a strong current and wind that took Theresa and I a while to paddle against on the boards. It was gorgeous to look at the shoreline from just a ways off though

Even Bandit got in on the paddleboarding action!

It was a great day trip and I would highly recommend it!
