I spend most of every day just moving things around - take a banana from here and move it....there. Divide a plant here...move it there. I make a lot of piles too...leaves, rocks, sticks. Sometimes I even consolidate piles. Yup - lots of work but man, what what were they thinking? Oh, that's right - you need all those little rocks for inside cinder blocks when you start building walls. It's good stuff, but figure out where your walls will be so you don't have to move them again! katrina More work - just what you need, right?

I missed the first one, which was yesterday. I'll be very interested to check that out.

Costco & Sam's are great, but very limited when it comes to food and Ive never even seen a Ralphs in PR. BUT, you are 100% correct when you say "trade that for the beauty of the place". I love Puerto Rico for what it is! If grocery store selection was that important to me, I would move back to CA ;) Victor - The Econo’s I’ve been to don’t exactly have bargain prices (I pay the same price for things I would buy on the mainland).

Just about every guy I have ever known, no matter how rich or poor they are, will happily scoop up another mans trash...

Good options are Costco, Sams, Ralph's, Amigo, WalMart and Grande in order of preference. You may not find atractive supermarkets in small towns, but you may trade taht for the beauty of the place: like Rincón or Boquerón. You can also find good restaurants.

What I did was 1 good tick removal (ie- my hand on the dogs getting the ticks off) and immediate frontline treatments and treats. I use Frontline on my dogs and no ticks.
