Update ..















































Besides the many biting insects, human sized beetles,cockroaches and spiders, lizards, scorpions we are alive and well in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua. :-)






We have been chasing absolutely gorgeous sunsets nightly. (actually Jacob and his sunset chasing reminds me of my dad making sure we don´t miss the sunsets on the Jersey shore.)
Jacob surfed for the first time and was an absolute natural! The instructor was so impressed he wanted to give Jacob another lesson for free so he could realize his surfing potential!!

One week Jacob, I and our friend Andrew provided free chiropractic care to the people of the San Juan del Sur community. We saw awesome, awesome things happen on the tables. Many people walked in one way and out as new men and women! Two days we went into the schools of the farming communities and adjusted all the children. As alwyas, it was a joy to serve the children. Many were super curious about the spine and the function of the nervous system. Perhaps we planted the seed for a future career in chiropractic for one of the children ....

We are moving on to Costa Rica in a few days.

Happy Thanksgiving!!! We may not have turkey but Jacob will FOR SURE find some mashed potatoes ......
