Costa Rica 2027 is only 2 months away. But I still have a few photos from 2026 to share. Every year, we pack a picnic lunch and go to what we affectionately call Spheres Park over lunch. The park isn’t exactly beautiful, but the drive is. Once there, the benches are weathered, and the grass is sparse, but the park is full of ancient spheres, flowering trees, and without fail, at least one pair of scarlet macaws watching us from above. After lunch, we follow a river and wind up and over a mountain road that crosses a narrow spine to the Boruca Village where we shop for masks. Follow our wheels…
Mosaic Monday.
You’ll never miss a scarlet sighting because the birds are so talkative and loud. But it’s hard to photograph them because they like to sit high in towering trees and watch you, while kissing and preening.
I’ve been on worse roads. But indeed, there are precarious, steep and frightening sections. We always turn off our air conditioning so that our car doesn’t over heat on the steep ascent.
It’s always fun to see the new designs. They are a riot of color and creativity.
Hallucination and horror blur into one as malevolent and mysterious visitors infest a Wisconsin farm.
