I’ve said it before, but I’m not sure if I said it here. The summer time in Puerto Rico to me is all about work, fresh fruit/vegetables and planting. This weekend was a great weekend. I got tons of yard work done, Summer and I planted a bunch of new plants and we got dumped [...]
Sydney and I were swimming at the Marina with friends the other day, when the weather started changing…It went from nice and sunny to dark and windy within a matter of minutes. While this is a pretty common occurrence in Puerto Rico in the summertime, this storm looked a bit more ominous then the typical [...]
Summertime is really the best time in Rincon. The only thing missing is the surf. All the other great things of the tropics are available to us; lots of fruits and vegetables are in season (like: avocados & mangos), all the plants grow, leaves turn green, grass gets green again and everything grows like wildfire. [...]
I just got back from a trip to Sears with my mom, signed into facebook and see all my friends down here talking about getting hit by a hurricane! Last I checked, they were just storms off of Cape Verde. Well, they are still just tropical storms but are predicted to deliver 50mph winds to [...]
Rainy Season is upon us and isn’t shy. It has been rainy almost every day for the past three weeks. It isn’t always an all day rain though, many of the days are just afternoon showers…lovely, humidity killing afternoon showers. The thunder was rumbling this morning when I got up and went into the office [...]
We could really use a couple days of rain. Rincon has been without a good rain shower in over a month and the land is showing it. This morning I had to drive out to Home Depot to grab a couple tubes of Liquid Nails and I couldn’t help but notice how dry all of [...]
I know, we have had a quasi radio silence for the past two weeks or so. Don’t give us a hard time, I have been on the road for work and Summer has been in San Diego shipping the heck out of some Halloween Costumes. I just called a buddy down there to see how [...]
For the past two months, we have been loosing power to the house regularly. We have had plenty of tropical storm action blowing harsh winds and dropping dozens of inches of rain on us here in Rincon and I have attributed the regular power outages to the weather conditions. Well, last night at poker, some [...]
I woke up this morning at 6:00am. I have a lot of things I would like to do today, none of them are related to working on the house or yard I worked on ‘work stuff’ all day Saturday to take today (Monday) off and go golfing. The only thing stopping me from going to [...]
It has been a long of summer of no surf in Rincon. Plenty of time to plant, build and work. However, that doesn’t leave much time to keep my sanity! Two/Three months without surf makes Stefan a dull boy. This past hurricane (Hanna) that cruised north of us, then south east to hit us and [...]
