A Long Overdue Visit From Mom

It had been 3 and 1/2 years since I have seen my mom! Far too long! She came out for a visit and stayed in our little cabana for about a week. We crammed in a lot of activities and everyone was super worn out by the end of the week. But I am so glad I got to see her. The next time we see her she will get to meet her grandson and we are all so excited about that! Here are a few photos from our adventures.


Britton showing her some of the work we have done on the property since her last visit


Fun on the farm

Obligatory Rincon Lighthouse photo op stop! 



A trip to Crashboat in Aguadilla


New mural honoring recently deceased Harry the Pelican Whisperer 

Fun at Crashboat


Still climbing trees!


Short hike around the Sugar Mill Pier property


Overlooking the pier

Watched some pretty sunsets


Visited the hospital and doctor with our sonogram results


Went out to some chinchorros (but no drinking for this mama-to-be)


Checked out the Art Walk


Got some henna tattoos


Went to the beach (Domes)


And got a little too much sun

Especially after a super hot hike at Spanish Wall


Spanish Wall boulder


We are already missing this lady and can’t wait to see her again! Love you, Mom. Thanks for everything!

Random Update: July 2017

Once again it is time for the slices of life that don’t necessarily deserve a post of their own but have been fun and/or interesting.

We recently went to a beautiful celebration of life at a boutique resort in Añasco called Yukayeke. It was very touching.

Sunset
Amazing sunset

Beach Memorial
Gathering of friends

Yukayeke pool Playing music at Yukayeke
And a pool party

Crab cage
It’s still crab (Juey) season here and a few people are out on the street offering them for sale

Abandoned
I love to stop and see the abandoned buildings and the fantastic graffiti art

Cassie mural

Doorway

Flamingo
Even a flamingo!

Closet
We finally hung the closet pole and shelf!!

The cars on this island are almost as fun to watch as the people! So many questions…

One car
From this… a custom car that could never clear most of the potholes here

Two car
To this…a makeshift moving van?

Car balneario
To this…an abandoned and stripped out car. Why are there so many jugs of water?

Harvest
Back at the farm, we’ve had quite the abundance of food and beauty!

Breadfruit
Breadfruit – Pana in Spanish is also an expression here that means pal or friend

Peace Lily
Peace Lily is blooming

Limes
Our first limes from a tree we planted!

Bridge
The cabin side of the property is filling in nicely with plants and the afternoon rains cause the quebrada to flow beneath the bridge

Ms Puerto Rico
The clothing selection in some stores is pretty fun -I had to try this one on: Ms Puerto Rico!

Broken Piraguas
Even the piragua cart breaks down sometimes!

Cassie and Britton
And the beach is always awaiting us
