it has been a while again since i´ve written, and i´m afraid i´m not going to be able to update much in the next month or so until we get internet at the house here. at the house, we have two methods of communication - one a two-way radio and the other the cell phone, which we have to drive to the top of the mountain to use. so it goes here.

this is the most amazing job i´ve ever had. you would be wise to visit here and this project. there is wayyy to much for me to write about to get it all down now, but i am in the midst of a great opportunity. there are so many talented people working on this project and others in the Osa. I am getting to meet some very high profile people and am getting to work on a worthwhile project. In the next month or so, we are working on installing Internet at the house... you wouldn´t believe the craziness involved in doing so. right now the gov´t has a monopoly on these things... there are other options, and now with CAFTA there are other possibilities that may be available in the near future. i´ve been writing in my journal on paper, so someday i hope to have time to transcribe... for now there´s just too much to say. On December 18th, we will be hosting one of the investor´s and his family, the Shitama´s, 10 people... it´s going to be quite busy for me this month.

I miss everyone and I wish I had more time to write about this... I must meet back up with Craig in a few minutes to head back to the house. This project is called Cerro Osa, by the way... the Web site is under development right now, and I´m also working on getting that moving... there should be an abundance of info there about the project soon.

other tidbits, some of our neighbors include a German rock band, the head of entymology at the Smithsonian, Heart Pheonix, many others... pretty neat. also, we ride the quad into town, the road to the house is inaccessible by car it will be fixed in the next month, the quad is so much fun... 22 km, some parts at 60km, with sweeping views of the pacific... i´m in heaven here. come visit.
