You're Fired

After many long years of devoted service, I'm afraid I'm going to have to let you go. I want to take this opportunity to thank you and I wish you the very best in your future endeavors.

Did you think it was over

Back to the open road, bleak open road. Its vary rare I go from tropical to frigid in less than 12 hours but when i do, its no holds barred. After coming home from paradise, I immediately left for New England. That's 90 degrees to 40 degrees, so sweet!

I flew into RI and the trip went as follows:



to



to



to



I usually write about how great it is going up there and it truly is however this trip, I truly wanted to go home. Some sights to sooth the nerves, as well as freeze them.

Super!


As deeply as I anticipated going home, my trip was productive and always fruitful. As my luck would have it though, my airline carrier let me down. I attempted to seek help from the Green Mountain Boys but they regretfully declined. I flicked my cigarette butt in their air space and carried on with my setback.



Maybe this is the way home

One more time for good measure.

As if I couldn't get enough of the “Rich Coast” during my honeymoon, I went back for more. Only this time, I went with a group of guys that on any given day will have you on the floor with laughter, or the occasional “turkey slap.”



Mars opted to have his bachelor party in CR which at first poised to be a stretch but in the end, by far one the best experiences Ive had in longtime. You cant put a price tag on new friendships as well as reunited ones for that matter. Its like one day I’m inundated with work, completely lost from the outside world and the next day I’m out surfing Jaco with an old friend, priceless.



We spent 4 days in Jaco which Ive heard can be compared to a dirty Vegas on some levels, still trying to see the resemblance. The town is a bit sketch, but the food is cheap and the beer flows like wine (so does the rum punch depending who you ask)



For the last two days of the trip we rented a house which was fucking stellar. The house is equipped with four bedrooms, a full kitchen, pool, a beautiful courtyard with garden for all you nature freaks, and literally two steps to the beach. If that isn't enough, there’s a one eyed mutt on the premises to help you sleep at night. We ate like kings and drowned a majority of our ambitions in fine alcohol. As you do.

On the last day, we all splurged on ATVs followed by some treacherous hiking/river walking through the jungle. Risky at best but probably the most thrilling of sites one could ever see. Venomous snakes, frogs, poisonous plants, and waterfalls that, if not careful could break a couple 2 - 3 ribs. You know you're in for something when posted signs warn you just about everything but proper grammar.

I sometimes think that ATVs were intentionally built for hell raising with your buddies. Just saying.

We closed the trip with another gentleman's feast. Trips like these don't come very often but when they do, don't think twice, you may find yourself sleeping right through a great time.

Congratulations pal! and thanks for the good times.

You hurt me again today, yet somehow I always end up coming back.

In the midst of airline dereliction, this has been helping.
