Puerto Rico can vote in the presidential primary elections to help elect a candidate for the President of The United States. Puerto Rico has 5 Superdelegates (same vote as a delegate, just they aren’t pledged to a candidate).

Central America and Mexico | Surf Trip

Author: Stefan | Filed under: Travel

We are narrowing down our surf trip destination options to Central America and Mexico. It is peak swell season there during July/August and the airfare and accommodations are going to be much less costly because it is not tourist season. I would really like to go to Indo with all of our friends, but I [...]

Planning a Surf Trip

Author: Stefan | Filed under: Travel

I know what you were thinking when you read the title to this post. Summer and Stefan are planning a surf trip? They live in a place people take surf trips to! Well, I’m not one to argue that point with you in the winter time, but come summer (rainy season), the swells hitting Rincon [...]

So Itchy, What is That?

Author: Stefan | Filed under: Puerto Rico

I haven’t really noticed exactly what was itching for the past two days (itching is a very common thing this time of year in Puerto Rico because of all the Pica Pica) but I have been scratching as needed. Yesterday, I realized that it wasn’t Pica Pica, that it is some sort of rash, but [...]

Teamwork Gets the Job Done

Author: Stefan | Filed under: Pets

Without even getting into the DIY projects we have around the house (hanging fans, light fixtures, organizing tools) Summer being gone exemplifies to me that it definitely takes teamwork to take care of this house. Man, who’s idea was it to build such a big house? Kuta and Monkey do a really good job scaring [...]

Home Grown Salad

Author: Stefan | Filed under: Gardening

Before Summer took off for California, she started a book called Animal, Vegetable, Miracle. Summer rarely starts just one book. But that’s another story. She left this book on the dresser in our bedroom and curiosity got the better of me so (Cheech is rubbing off on me) I picked it up and read the [...]

Viva Las Vegas!

Author: Stefan | Filed under: Puerto Rico

You know how it goes. When the cat is away the mice will play! I decided to pack up the car and head to Las Vegas for some casino, restaurant and some social action. I saw the signs, but never found the big lights of the city. Rumor has it Las Vegas has high rises [...]

Mosquito Torture!

Author: Stefan | Filed under: Bugs

AAAAAACK! There are so many mosquitoes in my office today! I definitely have an itchy spot for every hour I have been down here today, not to mention the red slap marks I have all over my back and legs from trying to slap the little suckers. Note to Self: Prioritize Air Conditioning for Offices [...]

Caribbean Sunset | Rincon PR

Author: Stefan | Filed under: Family/Friends, House, Puerto Rico

Summer and I both lived alone before we met each other. I lived in a little one bedroom cottage in La Jolla and she lived in a 3 bedroom house in Carlsbad. She worked from home (except when she and Kuta would go to the post office with the daily shipment) and I commuted to [...]

Surf and Turf Dinner

Author: Stefan | Filed under: Entertainment

Summer and I went to San Juan to have a nice little vacation before she had to hit the road for a few weeks to do some business back in San Diego. We like to stay at the El San Juan Casino in Isla Verde. We receive emails from them with specials, and when we [...]
