Absolutely, Sarah! Thanks for asking. If you’d like the original file I can email it to you, but I’ll need your email addy. Mine is elisha_in_nica@gmail.com.
Hope you don’t mind I use the photo of the folks using the Honda 125 to transport their housing addition. I’ve seen alot of crazy things in Nica but that’s a classic among classics.
I might bump into you next week on the beach or uptown Poneloya
