We're here in the rain forest of Costa Rica, managing a Tree House B&B, where the tree houses (seven total) are high amongst the trees...our neighbors consist of loads of hummingbirds, some monkeys, sloths, frogs, snakes, iguanas, geckos and various other critters...we look forward to sharing with you some pics and blog entries as we continue on our jungle journey...

The mural. . . it's done. . .
OK, in reality, the mural has been finished for a couple of weeks, but we have been laggards in posting much of anything (see Homer below). The mural looks fantastic, and the images really jump out. The eyes on the monkey look as if they're boring into you; the sloth has just the right tint of gray and green (it does grow moss/mildew/other green stuff on its back for camouflage); the ants are amazing crawling up the tree like they do; and the details on all of the birds are just as good as in a guidebook. Keneth, his cousin Darleen (who also works here) and Keneth's nephew (Antonio) all pitched in and all signed the piece when it was done. Keneth worked in the early mornings and on his days off to finish it up. It's really nice, and it looks even better in person.
