Because I never know if the comments section is being read, I want to thank in this post those who did post there for their extremely kind words. I'm getting the same reaction from friends here.
However, tomorrow, anyway, I am going to talk about food--I had home made crema de maiz (take note, Chiricana!) last night at the Espinosas, and it was delicious!

Hola Joyce:
Wow! and that is what I call "comida casera". Tell The Espinozas that I appreciate and thank them for showing you and Mary part of our campecino culture. And thank you for writing something positive about living in in a small town in Chiriqui. You know, I had the same experience, when we lived in Texas. I told my tex-mex neighbors that I did't like mexican food because they make sick. They told me to wait for their next cookout to eat home cookingn food. (not Taco Bell). Mmmm they were right. I still don't like much mexican restaurants, but miss my neighbor's home made meals. I'like to see pictures of your adventures with home grown vegetables and flowes.
I'm a retired American ex-pat. Living with 3 large dogs, 2 hyper-energetic kittens plus a human being somewhere does not qualify me to describe myself as single. All of us live on a 3+ acre finca outside of the pueblo itself.
As with every new stage in my life, I've found new and different things to do. One of them is filming--erratically--what I see of interest around me (and can get the cam corder in time for) and in what little traveling I do. But old joys--reading and gardening--still have their prominent places in my life.
I enjoy most people but am not social--I can go for long periods of time without seeing another human being and not feel a lack. Ergo, 3 dogs, 2 cats, and only one human. The proportion is about right although a little heavy on the human end.
