A Missed Season
It's fall in my home state of Virginia. Specifically in Roanoke. Located in the southwest part of the state. And we miss the beautiful fall scenery. The cool crisp days and the chilly snugly nights. The kind that when you walk out onto your deck with a warm drink in your hand and gaze up at the stars and see your breath as you sigh at the wonders of God and the hopes for tomorrow.
You don't get that here in the tropical climate of Costa Rica at this time of the year. All you can look forward to is the end of the rainy season and the beginning of the 'high season'. Which means many more tourists that fly here to escape their cold weather and enjoy the tropical climate that sometimes we want to escape from. Ironic, they are here to escape from the very thing that we miss!
I guess the saying, "Be careful of what you wish for" is true. But then if everything was just as you wanted it all the time...............life would be so boring wouldn't it..........
Pura Vida and Happy Holidays
