Friday nights in October, 2014

Random guy in the street practicing the trumpet in preparation for the Patriots Day in November

The view from a friends sweet 51st floor apt before poker

Crazy movie theater 

And the salsa band at the German restaurant for Oktoberfest

Wonky Panamanian street signs

I have no words, only questions.
Why is your head the same size as your ball?
Why do you have feet but no hands?
Why did your mother dress you in bell bottoms?

"Caution:  after a few drinks, trees may make awkward passes" (ala yawn turns into an arm around your waist).

"My anaconda don't want none unless you got buns, hon"

"Caution:  Evel Knieval crossing."

Punta Chame- hidden treasure

We couldn't walk five feet without seeing a sand dollar buried in the sand. We collected 29 total, and rejected at least that many- if they werent perfect, we threw them back. Now its time to check pintrest for sand dollar art projects. 

Supermoon!!!!

As seen from Panama, August 10, 2014. Check out the reflection on the water. 

Newport, RI

I was lucky enough to spend a week in Newport RI in July.  My very talented friend Carter Howards took these amazing photos which really demonstrate the beauty of the area.

Puma

The Summit Zoo in Panama just got a new puma.  It lays in the sun, and stretches the day away.  It's like a 250lb version of Lulu.

Beach house weekend!

In less than a week, many good friends leave Panama forever, so to have some last good times together, we rented a beach house in the middle of nowhere. Great food (since my departing friends are all gourmands), lots of relaxing, and lots of laughs.
