  2. This is a large (28" x 55") wooden executive type desk. It has one center drawer. It's currently in a storage unit behind El Dorado Super Market. The buyer will have to pick it up from that location. For sale for only $40. Email Penny at pjbarrett@aol.com or text WhatsApp 6510-8934
  3. The beauty of this mini electric water heater is that it will plug into a regular 110 wall outlet. I purchased it thinking it was large enough to run three hot water outlets but I was wrong. It will definitely run a sink and maybe also a second hot water outlet. I paid $125 for it but will sell it to you for $75. Email Penny at pjbarrett@aol.com or text WhatsApp 6510-8934.

  5. Dear Boquete Friends, Neighbors and Clients - Just before the pandemic, I received an order of Shea Terra Organics products for the facials offered at Spa Boquete. Alas, it's not tet clear when the spa can safely re-open, especially for facials. Since I currently have a small supply of great products on hand and no beautiful faces on which to use them soon, I'm offering them for sale at a 50% discount from Shea Terra Organics' list prices. This is just in time for Valentine's Day and/or as an option for a relaxing do-it-yourself home facial for yourself or for a special person. Or for daily routine skin care. For the facial, all you need is a cleanser, a moisturizer, a bowl of warm water, a washcloth, music, and plenty of good vibes. Detailed product descriptions and reviews are available at www.sheaterraorganics.com. Facial Cleansing Products, 4 oz. glass bottle with pump, $9.00 each: Rose Hips & Nigerian Black Soap Deep Pore Facial Wash (also serves as a facial masque). Tamanu & Licorice Clarifying Facial Wash.

  9. This weekend they will have a market with 53 art makers and different stands.
  10. I've long thought that there are extraterrestrials hiding among the expat population in Boquete. Not sure about the "intelligence" part.
  11. Who in their right mind would go to the Fish House Restaurant in downtown Boquete and not eat fish? During many years enjoying their fish and chips I kept hearing people talk about their beef meals -- hamburgers, steaks, etc. So, a couple of months ago I ordered the cheese steak. Now, I have to tell you I've had Philly Cheese Steaks from the original provider in Philadelphia. Never did I expect a sandwich so big and so delicious. Chock full of tender beef, sauteed onions and green peppers. It was delicious and very inexpensive. I've now had 4 occasions to order this sandwich and I can never eat it all. It's a delicious lunch the next day. The Fish House is a wonderful little restaurant right on the river. The atmosphere is welcoming, the waitress is wonderful, and the prices are dirt cheap.
  12. More information about Franc's last days from his landlady, Penny Ripple: For the many residents of Boquete, this is a very sad day. Our friend and neighbor, Franc Lugo, passed away at 9:39 last night in the Regional Hospital. The cause of death was Sepsis, which he developed after 3 surgeries, including the loss of his left leg and repair to an aneurysm in an abdominal aorta. Please send your prayers to Isabel and her family, and to his son in the US, who is recovering from a recent motorcycle accident and does not know about his father’s passing.Franc lived on our property for the last few years, as our friend and caretaker. We will all mourn his passing…he was one wonderful guy!
  13. I was just informed that our friend Franc Lugo died at Hospital Regional. Franc was in the hospital for deep vein thrombosis which resulted in the amputation of his leg and then resulted in an aneurysm which was operated on. Franc will be remembered fondly by the Boquete Community.
