Having fun at Villa Montana in Isabela on Valentine’s Day

Raising a baby takes a lot of the extra time I might be writing a post and puts it onto him. So please forgive all the photos and lack of text, but I just wanted to get a flavor of the times as we have been out and about in western Puerto Rico these last few weeks.

 
Visiting La Playuela, Wilderness and Pena Blanca in Aguadilla

La Playuela was considered for a mega hotel and a lot of protesting has (thankfully) stalled/ended it. It is such a cool area

Pena Blanca is just down from it

Cliffside beaches and coves

Save La Playuela

Like a throwback to a different time

Out to lunch at Tamboo in Rincon. Tuesday is Mexican food day! My fave!

Britton and Aeden at Tamboo

Fun at the lighthouse in Rincon

Lighthouse Park, Rincon

Fun at Sandy Beach

Another turkey girl hatched out some chicks!

Steps Beach babes! 🙂


Working on building another staircase into the jungle with friend Chris

Turkey and chicken inspectors


Lots and lots of wagneriana heliconias!

We’ve had great sales at the market on Sundays! It’s been fun to share the fruits (and flowers) of our labors

We like to go out to lunch/brunch after the market – Gastropark in Rincon

Britton and Aeden at the gastropark

Another fave restaurant is Picoteo in Anasco- check out that overlook!

February is about as cold as it will get to put baby A in clothes! 🙂

February has also been especially smoky! Lots of burning going on. (Check out the hillside behind me in this pic)

More hillside fires in the distance combating pica pica generally

Since things aren’t growing as fast we can work on some projects like clearing the paths of old fallen trees from Maria

Cutting a path through the jungle of the property to the backside of the cabin

Beach break at the Marina -a social and fun playa

Having fun shopping with the bebo -haha

Happy Baby yoga pose

Taking Aeden out for strolls has been a new development since he can hold his head up now

He is such a doll and loves being outside with us

Well that’s a lot of life in a few pictures. Life has been rolling forward. With a baby we notice it a lot more! Every day is precious. Here’s Aeden’s 5 month update.

We were also featured in another news program about people from Colorado who have moved all over the globe -Puerto Rico, South Korea, Tunisia and Vietnam. It’s called “Living Abroad” and I think it does a pretty good job of capturing the essence of our life here. I am not sure I would call it “abroad” exactly, but it is hard to describe the move from the states here any other way. And like this sign says of all these choices: Rincon is the best place to live!

Rincon el mejor lugar para vivir!
