Good Times

This is the campesino version of a wi-fi cafe, a one room schoolhouse in the jungle...

It's been a very busy couple of weeks. We've been working, brewing, and have done a bit of traveling as well. We had our first English class at the school, which went well, now they want us to teach at both the primary and secondary schools.

Our good friend Brent came to visit, which was totally awesome...... good times!
We have a ton of pictures and a couple of videos, I hope I can get it all posted today, we'll see...

When we went to Alajuela to pic up Brent we ran into our friend (Adian) who we met back in April at an art festival. He's an amazing artist from Cuba as well as a really friendly, cool guy. We went to his apartment to see his art collection. It was very impressive. Here are a few pics, there are tons more.....We can't fit them all on here.



































We had a great time with Brent while he was here..... We hung out at the farm for a few days and then headed off to the beach, Manual Antonio. We decided to combine our anniversary (which was Nov 11) and scouting for music venues for Mike with the trip, justifying the expense of the travel and leaving Willie behind (he'll get a chance to go when his grandparents visit) . It was absolutely beautiful!









Mike had an impromptu jam session at the Bueno Nota with Jonathan, a very talented musician. Eventually we'll post a video (right now we're having technical difficulties with our video compressor).

On our second day we took a walk in the national park. We saw two kinds of monkeys, a sloth, a raccoon, and some Agouti.






















Last night Jose Conde, a talented musician from Cuba, came by for dinner. He, Mike, and Josh joined in on a jam session in the studio. Here are some audio tracks......
