With October comes a bit of an exodus from Guanacaste. A normal October rainy season is just that, very rainy. So far this year, it seems that we are getting a little bit of rain every other day or so, with the occasional storm dropping a heavy shower once a week. It's great! That is, as long as we ignore the looming potential drought for next April. Of course, there may not be a drought, we rely on aquifers that are fed from both rainfall here and also underground rivers from the mountains. Word is that the mountains are getting pretty normal rainfall. Time will tell.

Despite the not-too-heavy rain, many folks still leave town to go back to wherever it is that they are from, catch up with family and friends, or just spend a little time somewhere other than this little slice of paradise. At the moment, both my business partner and his wife, as well as Jocelyn, are in the states. That leaves me with two bored but loveable dogs. Bored, because I'm only giving them 1/4 of the usual people-hours to which they are accustomed (maybe less, as being the only one here has notably increased my list of things to do). Loveable, because, heck, they're good dogs.

(yes, this post was mostly orchestrated as a long-winded way to post up some pics so that Brian, Carrie and Jocelyn can see their pups and feel happy)
