Summer arrives in Puerto Rico

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

That’s right, Summer is here. Both of them.

Summer flew in almost a week ago from her three week business trip to San Diego. The entire time she was there she was working 15 hour days, moving warehouses, setting up new utilities, working with accountants and bookkeepers and I can only imagine what else. She left San Diego at 9:45pm on Jet Blue and arrived in Aguadilla around 10:00am the next day. I got to the airport a little early and decided to hang out at Wilderness (surf spot in the flight path) until her plane cruised in overhead. Here is a picture I took of her plane with my phone. Sitting on the beach waiting for her flights is definitely better than circling the San Juan Airport in the truck.

Not only is MY Summer here, but the summer heat is here as well! The past couple of days have been hot (but they are always hot when you are in the sun), but the evenings have been hot as well. In the winter, the nights really cool down quite a bit. It is perfect weather for shorts and a t-shirt and maybe jeans if the trade winds are blowing or there is a storm system over us. Once summer starts to hit, the evenings don’t cool off quite as much and the idea of putting on long pants becomes quite unsettling.

This prompted us (along with a visit from Brian) to install our new ceiling fan in the master bedroom and begin our research on installing air conditioning in the two bedrooms upstairs and the offices/guest bedroom downstairs.

We will be getting split units for upstairs, but Brian brought up putting in Ducts and central air downstairs since we haven’t drywalled the ceilings yet. Let the Air Con research begin! Have any of you guys made a Air Conditioning investment at your house? If so, do you have any input for us (cost, brand, pitfalls etc)? Let us know!

    Didn’t you say Aguadilla? Jet Blue = Aguadilla

    this must be a typo?
    “Sitting on the beach waiting for her flights is definitely better than circling the San Juan Airport in the truck”

  2. Stefan Says:

    VTM: I did say Aguadilla. Jet Blue has flights into there daily out of JFK airport in New York. I detect a little sarcasm on the “Typo” question…

  3. VanTheMan Says:

    so if you are talking about aguadilla why did you say it was better than circling the san juan airport? didn’t you mean circling the aguadilla airport?

  4. Stefan Says:

    ah, another case of me being misunderstood. :-)

    Here is what I meant: Being on the beach waiting for Summers flight to arrive in Aguadilla (30 minute drive from home)is much better than driving 2.5 hours to San Juan and circling the airport.

  5. VanTheMan Says:

    gotcha. You were making a point to jackasses like me so that no one else (like me or eddie) flies into San Juan.

  6. Stefan Says:

    somehow I knew it was gonna come full circle like that…it wasn’t my intention, but yeah, if you are gonna come down to visit, don’t be a jackass by flying into san juan.
