True grit

Still no internet.

I received a message from Sally, a woman who moved to Costa Rica with her husband nearly 4 years ago from Seattle, Washington. They bought a large piece of property just south of San Jose in Puriscal. Kevin found Sally's blog 'Life in Costa Rica' last January and we've been reading her entries ever since. They came with two suitcases each, no idea where they wanted to live, and when they finally bought their property, they had to live in a small shed-like structure while their house was being built. Her husband had one friend in Costa Rica, but that's it. It's taken over 2 years for their house to be completed. They've been sleeping on an air mattress all this time. So whenever I feel like we've bitten more than we can chew, I have Sally as my inspiration to stop whining.
