another year of saving and slaughtering has come and gone. I’ve no hard statistics to back up my claim, but it appears that the slaughterers are outpacing the savers. And now some of them are on our doorstep, looking to capture wild dolphins to put on display for the profit margins of the few… Read the rest of this entry →

Well, hot on the heels of the first sale of land in Phase Four of lot 3, we have yet another new neighbour on the South Shore - Lot 4 next door is officially sold. It’s been a busy but fruitful past few weeks here on the farm in beautiful Bocas del Toro and we are very excited about the newest neighbour to join our little community. There were alot of folks writing, asking questions about Lot 4 with an eye to coming for a look, but alas the pretty young thing is now spoken for…

And just this afternoon we received our first offer on a Phase Three hillside lot. A pleasant chap from the northern US, is in the process of becoming the new owner of Lot 2 - he came for a meadow lot and left with a spectacular view out over Dolphin Bay.

Folks just seem to fall in love with the place while they are here.

Wahoo!!… It’s official - We’ve sold 12 of the 24 available lots of land for sale in our residential project here on Dolphin Bay. Our newest neighbours actually purchased a couple weeks ago, but what with a brand new baby boy and building a retreat centre, seems I haven’t found time to revise the website and neighbourhood plan in time for a blog post.

I’m sure if JensenBlu had a choice he’d much prefer this photo than the one I posted a few days ago when he was only hours old. He’s dressed better and looks cuter… funny how you come into the world the same way you go out - wrinkled, blotchy and dressed in little more than diapers. He doesn’t have any cats though and no stacked up old newspapers - Luna is thankful for that as her uterus was rather large near the end just with the lad himself.

Anyway, here he is cleaned up, shaved and dressed. He seems to get cuter by the hour. Though after nine months of living in a darkened sack of warm liquid, I guess the only way is up.

I’ve also added a photo of JensenBlu with his big brother Zuul.

Well, after nine months in production and countless back and leg massages, our second son has arrived! JensenBlu came into the world at 10:21am Sunday morning at 6lbs. 12 oz. All is well with mother and son and we should be back on the farm by Saturday.

Will and Sandy,

First of all, I want to apologize for not writing sooner. It seems I have fallen into the Bocas Vortex and time has gotten away from me in ways I could not have imagined.

You sound like great people and I am really looking forward to seeing you in the Fall.  When I was in the states I could not imagine what was keeping those already in Bocas from writing and sharing their experiences.  Well…. now I understand.  Read the rest of this entry →

It is with disappointment and some shame that i report to you of a great tragedy that is beginning to unfold in the waters of Dolphin Bay. The government of Panama has decreed that the capture of live wild dolphins within it’s national waters is perfectly reasonable and should be encouraged by law. Read the rest of this entry →

We are the newest buyers at “The Finca” and very excited by the prospect of moving there soon. The current plan (which is always subject to change) is to come down mid August and staying for 2 1/2 months. Will and I will be moving as soon as we can get thing organized here in the Virgin Islands and in Florida.

It has been so good to read your blogs. We are very much looking forward to meeting you!!! Read the rest of this entry →

Well, it’s been a busy time the last few months with folks coming and going from the project - those visiting land they already purchased in our little Dolphin Bay neighbourhood, as well as those folks still looking for land for sale in Panama’s Caribbean playground, Bocas del Toro.
