What scenery

I'm in Denver now.  I flew here a week ago to visit my high school buddy and take in some fishing in the mountains.  The foliage has started to change and what a show.  The Aspens are in full color (yellow).  Although I got out fished 32-2, the trip was spectacular. Oh yeah, it was in the upper 70's/low 80's for the 3 days in the mountains.   

We made it!!!

Annie, I and 6 other people went deep into the Comarca (land dedicated to the indigenous people of Panama) for 3 days and 2 nights.  It was to evaluate what the needs are for the people.  It was a great trip.  Very basic accommodations and food but a priceless experience.   

Do you believe this?????

I had a guy come today, he was supposed to be here Monday) to clean the tree up with his chain saw.  Yesterday afternoon another tree came down on top of the fallen one.  What is going on.  At least I have the guy for the whole day.  I'm running out of trees.  

Getting there

We are this much further now.  We have had terrible rains every afternoon so the workers leave early.  Not much gets done in a half day of work.

Timber!!!!!!!!

Just as our projects were starting to dwindle, down comes a tree on top of the Orchid House.  We can't replace the plastic this time of year (rains), so we'll have to wait till Jan. to do the new roof.  It busted up some steel framing also.  There were no winds just inches of rainfall.  But, the tree broke off about 12' up the trunk. Huh????

Here's looking at you.

Now that we are back from St. Thomas, I now have the flu.  But, yesterday I was at one of my friends house and met up with one of his birds, face to face.  Also, the storms are here   

Cheery day

How could you not be in good spirits when you are surrounded by these.
