I just got this video off a Costa Rica Gardener FB page, made by a lady living here in Costa Rica:

“Metamorphosis is the most profound of all acts.” 
― Catherynne M. Valente

And in some ways, we people are metamorphosing
as our world changes around us! Even that can be profound!
As Paul said:

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; 
old things have passed away, and look, new things have come. 

2 Corinthians 5:17 HCSB

Well, I’m not posting as often and haven’t even finished telling about my second trip to Nicaragua! Just been too busy and too tired late at night. I’ve also spent a lot of time trying to all my paperwork correct, in Spanish, for the Caja application interview tomorrow. Actually, I’m on standby for a no-show or vacant time slot tomorrow with my firm appointment the following Friday, the 15th. Be glad to get that behind me. And to be insured again!

And don’t miss my Nicaragua Birds photo gallery for 98 different species!

And remember that both my trips to Nicaragua were provided by Tours Nicaragua!  Check out what they offer! I’m happy with them!
