last full day done right in Panama

-

Let me tell you this day started just right.  I am waking up at Stephen and Jen's (have moved as Jen's Mom now has the apartment Patt and I had) and I have just opened my computer and email dings from Jen asking if I am up for a grandson.  Well am I ever.  "we have a winner"  and that would be me.  check this out.  ole Raleigh snuggled down and felt so nice.  Yep a good way to start my last day here on this trip.

 He has been sick the past two days, quite distressed, crying a lot and obviously very uncomfortable - well mid afternoon as you can see from the expression below, he feels a lot better

 thinks I tell funny stories

and thinks I tell interesting tall tales

 continues to be the attentive listener

now thinks I went on a bit to long

 We also posed for photos with Guerra, one of the building guards with whom we enjoy visiting.  Each of us is wearing a hat that was a gift.  I of course gave the Bulls hat to Guerra, he the Panamanian cowboy hat to me and the stocking cap to Raleigh because he thought Jen was risking his health by taking him out in the evening when it was about to "dew".

Yes, you know how rapidly the temperature drops here in Panama when the evening draws nigh.  It may get down to about 91 or so.  People start putting on coats and jackets.  Note Guerra is wearing a t-shirt today at mid-day when the "feels like" is above 100.  We took the stocking cap off as soon as we were on the elevator headed back up stairs and out of threat of dew — that moisture that forms summer mornings on the grass--- yes that stuff.  ( but you do have to be glad people are looking out for you)

 and we also posed for a photo to know Grandad and Grandson are in Panama

it has been a wonderful trip.
