Keeping the feet clean and dry is key.  Tea Tree tincture diluted in the water.  Not much.....Tea Tree oil can be toxic. The soil here has a lot of fungus in it. We seemed to have cut down to nearly zero our dog's infection with Giardia  by washing her feet and drying them after walking her.  I know it seems anal but she is an inside the house dog and feet licking and leg grooming is one of her things she does.  If the fur of the  feet and legs are clean and dry she has a reduced chance of getting infected. Seems to be working.

Didja notice that none of the photos have a full front facial view of the bride? In fact the other women in the pictures at the wedding were absent a full front facial view. Also the bride’s name was not provided, with the only identifying information in the articles being that she is from Paso Canoas.

It appears to me that her identity is being hidden, probably to deter problems regarding her safety at her home.

Am I looney with this logic?

Dear BD....here is one of three photos submitted to Reten Chiriqui via twitter. Pretty gal...both appear to be happy. Not your average day in prison. 

I agree...the message is confusing. 

 'true love does not annul the legitimate differences, but harmonizes them in a unity’”  he states 

To find yourself”, said the pontiff from the huge balcony in the Cinta Costera, "does not mean to imitate, nor to think the same everybody or to live the same everybody, doing and repeating the same things, listening to the same music or wearing the same football team shirt, not that"....he states

I hope the youth are inspired by his message .  I remain confused..but for me...that's normal.

What astounds me is the liberty he apparently was allowed to develop this relationship.  Puzzling.  He's a changed man ( as he professes) and this gal must see something in that.  

Insanity.  Wild Bill got married in jail.

Pretty young gal from Chiriqui fell in love with this mass murderer ....and he has the privilege of marrying her  while in jail.  wow....

Haven't gotten mine yet.

Our new cards came in the mail this week...via MBE

WOW   Thanks.  We would never in a zillion years have thought of that

This kind of thing is out of control in the USA.  Gizmo mania.  I suppose there may be a lesson learned here.   That said, 12 years does seem pretty harsh.  A Panama prison is not a good place to be...for 12 years!

I noticed that yesterday. I was trying to get to a posted classified and no matter what I did it took me to the top of a scrolling list and I never did find the ad despite spending 10 minutes or so screwing around with it.

exactly

Open garbage pits intensify the difficulty in keeping the rats at bay.

I used to look at the classifieds but it is now a total pain in the tail to use.  I just don't open Boquete.Ning anymore.   

When you look it up on-line the official day is Wed the 9th.  I just found another site that said it will be officially celebrated on Monday the 7th.  BUT hey, this is Panama so it may be a very loooong weekend.

Wow.....that person must have an enormous amount of time on their hands.  Quite a detailed  dissection of driving.   One comment read: " Stay home, problem solved" .  I had to laugh. 

Been there done that...they know, and we are told they are busy with other issues that apparently take precedence.    For some folks tanks are empty for lack of pressure enough to restore what is used.  If you do not have a tank , you do not have water now for several weeks.  For those that do have tanks  it's a stain on the water pumps and as well a challenge in the recycling of water.  The water I use to wash clothes I catch and wash the floors with then use what's left to flush the toilets and the rest to water a plant or two.  

Thanks.  We'll take along the photos of the ruptured pipe ( one of three in Brisas) exhausting enough water to supply the entire flower fair daily.  It is an enormous amount of water and the biggest one supplies a fire hydrant & all the homes in the lower portion.   I guess the pressure has been amped up in order that what water does get through the ruptured pipe that some tanks get filled slowly over night.  We are told the City is busy with other repairs that take priority.  This is the 4th time ( I've lost count) this same pipe has been repaired.  Some residents have collect a fund to repair it themselves.  I do not believe this is a good idea.  It is a difficult repair and one the city should attend to. 

A water fountain and a river....and off the side of the canyon a waterfall.

Great.  Lucky for them.  It's a BEAUTIFUL house !!!!

Yes.   Makes me nervous when my husband trusts the other driver will stop at these intersections where he has the right of way.  I just don't trust the other drivers.  He wants to mount my seat facing backwards. ....no I think he'd rather put me in the trunk.

This is when police work can actually be quite enjoyable.  

With all this post holiday traffic, how can two cars be going so fast as to demolish the front ends of both...especially in this location?   

Seems like closing the hiking path would be a good idea until this weather lets up a bit...if it does.  That's brutal

The store needs a public address system so they can make announcements:  "Attention attention would Mr Citadel South Carolina please come to the office to collect your door prize..."  ( You can make up the rest of the story from there.)

   My vote:  The rotten tomatoes the store  discards could be used in a public tomato toss .   My hunch is some Panamanians would weigh on that one.

Horrible.  Bill and I noticed a lot of horrendous speeders weaving in an out of the traffic on the Boquete/David highway.  One passed a police car.  Police in that car I guess were not designated traffic police.  Puzzling.

...the truck driver is now driving a cab.

You inspire us.  Good work !   Congratulations Brandy.  You have my vote
