Around the Farm...

Hola!

Today is Tuesday and Wednesday, days 14 and 15 of my journey of Costa Rica.

Banana tree next to the Bodega house.

Close up of the bananas on the tree.

Bananas and plantains hanging on the porch of the bodega house.

Look at the ground, it is declining downwards on the Mountain. 
At the back of the house the sheep are using part of the underneath 
of the main house as a shelter for themselves.

The neighbor's bulls have come to visit us.

 The water filter container(Berkey). I am not able to drink water from the sink
 (which comes from the river). I have to drink the water from this water filter container. 
The family here is used to drinking water from the river.

Christian and I are patiently waiting for the pictures to upload on the blog. 
The internet here up on the mountain is very very slow. It can take from 
several minutes to 45 minutes to just upload pictures and then 
several minutes to add my comments to the pictures.

Sometimes we have to wait till the next day hoping the internet will be faster 
to load the pics onto the blog. Christian has been a great help with the blog. 

Next day Tammy, Christian and I worked on the yard
 in front of the outside kitchen of the bodega.

Christian at the front outside sink.

Tammy would like to see more flowers like this one in front of the sink. She would love to
have flowers all around the front of the outside sink to look at while washing dishes.

 Pots hanging from behind of the outside kitchen. She would like to have herbs hanging there. 
She does have herbs in the garden area. She would like to have some near the kitchen.

Tammy telling us what she would like done in the yard.

Christian moving a piece of wood to the front yard to make the flower bed. 
It will be a nice place for flowers. A pretty area of flowers for the lady of the house.

Spent the afternoon working on the panties.

End of days 14 and 15 of my trek in Costa Rica. There is always something to do on the farm.
 I love the view of the mountains and green lush everywhere.
 It is absolutely beautiful out here on the mountain.
More to come. Hope you are enjoying this as much as I am.
