No pictures this time, just one big amazing piece of news that I somehow was able to not tell anyone for about 2 months now. My fathers lawsuit is over, he received a substantial amount ... I have never seen a check with that many 0's. I kept counting them to make sure the number was what I thought it was. I would highly recommend this lawyer to anyone lol pops told me one of the selling points was how my sister and I moved back to help keep them afloat, which lead to some tirade by the judge ... anyway, here comes the fun part.

My sister, her boyfriend, the parents and myself have discussed opening a restaurant numerous times. My sisters bf used to own a restaurant in Jersey and had been looking to start a surf business in Costa Rica. My sister and I have worked multiple facets in restaurants and bars so we have our experience, and the folks are amazing cooks. We all joked around about the idea of opening a restaurant/surf shop in Costa Rica .... evidentally my parents werent joking .... they liked the idea a lot. Jaco, Costa Rica.



Soooooo yea, lol it looks like I am moving and thats gonna be my new town. The folks and my sister flew down last weekend and fell in love with one place. The bf and I fly out tomorrow after I get out of work for the weekend to go check shit out. Parents were ready to throw down deposits, according to my sister the place is siiiiiiick. Streets run directly into the beach, the property is the 3rd from the sand. Large open aired type restaurant with massive bar in the middle. Adjacent shop the size of a 2 car garage with room behind it for surf shop or whatever store. THEN behind the restaurant and bar are 3 villas. One ridiculously large main that has 5 bedrooms, and 2 smaller ones with 3 bedrooms surrounding a nice pool area with a hot tub.

Just to give you an idea how much our money is worth down there. When we went down the first time, we exchanged $1,400.00 dollars for $750,000.00 Colones. Everything there is insanely cheap. I still cant believe it. Maybe my dream that I had before I went the first time does have a chance of happening. lol I dreamed that I was mountain biking in the rain forest when suddenly the ground gave out from under me and I fell into an underground lava tube .... eeeklol I will just go surfing all the time. I will miss you guys, but you can come to visit me in paradise. biggrinkiss

I know, that's why I said it's the best story I've heard. It all sounded pretty good, but I thought the $ conversion rate was a bit extravagant. However, I discovered that $1400 really does convert to just over ₡725,000
