Brian Timmons Dear friends, When I started Residencias Los Jardines, I started writing a weekly newsletter -determined to tell all the good, bad, and the ugly. I knew some readers would be interested in the construction process. I expected others might be interested in the lifestyle of two people who had decided to live outside the box. For others, the adventures of Lita, the parrot and the cat took on an entertainment saga all its own. Residencias Los Jardines is finished. We periodically have re-sales and rental availability. Some readers may be interested in this information. Brian Timmons |

rentals & sales Paradisus Condos / Rohrmoser Each of the units consists of two bedrooms / two bathrooms, and a large living/dining/kitchen area. The floor plan of each of these units has eliminated the optional "den / office" divider. The result is a larger area offering more flexible furniture arrangements while still maintaining the option of including an office area. At 105m2 plus two parking spots each and storage locker, they offer a great opportunity for someone seeking views, security, central location, and first class, all round living...

Our Lives
Weather: Actually, we have not had much rain in the Santa Ana area... in Heredia and elsewhere yes... we need to water... and I can't remember when I last needed an umbrella... Showings but...: no interest... lookers only with VERY limited budgets and high hopes... I've been sick with a cold so not much interest in my surroundings. The US political scene is more than depressing and the implications so far reaching... perhaps because of my cold, I don't see a happy future or place... I feel like pulling the electronic plug and sitting in the hammock, oblivious to my political and economic environment since there isn't much I can do about it... I have yet to be contacted to pick up my new passport... mmmm... |
News Items of the Weeknews
Comments 1. The government has to borrow the money to pay for 1/2 the proposed expenses. No tax reform laws have passed and they do not seem to be able to cut expenses or improve efficiency. Most of the budget is for salaries and pensions... these are all "expenses" with no investment aspect at all... They government borrows most of the expense of infrastructure deals... The colon is a 559 now... up about 17 points. It doesn't seem to have captured the anger of people yet... or praise... how much further it will go I don't know... It is good for us earning and working in dollars... but for others earning in colones and paying loans in dollars... it is difficult.
