The cavalry has arrived.

Scott got down here yesterday. We put in a marathon shopping session at the Do It Center in Liberia, buying a sink, a toilet, a ceiling fan, brakcets, dead bolts, brooms, and all the little things that go into the house. The total came to 1000. I nearly fainted then relaized that the fan we bought had been mismarked. instead of being 40 dollars, it was 400. 600 is still not cheap, but its better. My credit card sighed.

We made it to Nosara for a late day session. It was big out, probably 7 feet and really closing out. We watched the sun set from the water. Scott made it as far as dinner adn one flor de cana, then it was all we could do to get him back to the BUeno to retire.

I ran intot he candiens who tell me that the saw has burned out. I need to replace it. Scott and I are gonig up the mountain now to see what can be done in the 5 days we have here. He is a good man to have, decisive and, so far, full of optimism. We will see what Costa does to that. until then, it was enormous out this morning, probably double overhead on some sets. We boht got stoked, crushed, and tired.
