                    <description>Still living with no basics.  Haven't had a shower in 11 days.  Haven't had a hot shower in almost 2 months.  Days we aren't correcting shoddy workmanship I come over to Bocas and internet.  I will go with a different carpenter for the rest of the job.  Mine has not been truthful with me and that is worse than making mistakes on the house.  The house won't be perfect but it has charisma and </description>

                    <description>Day 7 of actual construction and I have a roof.  It still needs to be painted.  Unfortunately I missed roofing day as I was enjoying an interesting day traveling to another town getting more cash.  I thought the bus ride over the mountains was thrilling.  That was a warmup for the bus to Changuinola and the bank.  And theres nothing more thrilling than walking through a foreign marginal shan</description>

                    <description>So it was a down day and I was craving a salad.  They're not big on salads at the cheap local eateries.  I went to the produce stand and got lettuce pepper tomato onion cucumber carrot and took em back to my room.  It was then I realized that I am not in a hostel with a kitchen anymore.  All I had was a butter knife.  Try peeling and cutting the aformentioned veggies which were washed in t</description>

                    <description>Day 2  Wanchow had quite a crew today.  My labor is through the roof not really.  Most of these poor unskilled guys make 15 a day.  Making concrete the oldfashioned way.  You can build a foundation with a plumbbob string Lsquare wheelbarrow shovels trowel wood rocks sand cement and sweat.  Some of the 70 lb. bags were carried by men up a steep slope then down into slippery jungle</description>

                    <description>Found my builder Wanchow.  He has built many houses on this island and the other islands.  He works hard and is quite fast according to my sources.  When the TV show Survivor filmed a season on these islands several years ago Wanchow was the guy who built the houses for the crew.  The money is starting to flow now  various permits and plans will run over 1000 and material for foundati</description>

I offered that arrangement hoping he would take it instead of me paying him to just upkeep the place.  This way no money out of pocket foir me and hopefully he can have greater benefit for his family.  Sadly I say goodbye to Omar and</description>

                    <description>This my favorite mountain town of the 6 that I've investigated. My first trip to CP three years ago was a short trip and my camera died after about 2 pictures. If I hadn't already bought 2 island properties I would have tried harder to find something here.  Things were just too expensive for the little money I had left.  3 properties in Panama  I'm out of my mind.  See the videos of Cerro Punt</description>

                    <description>Tip  if you click on a picture it enlarges and you can flow through the pictures with the toolbar on top.  Lots of pics of surrounding neighborhood.  No exclusive or tract housing here.  You have nice houses alongside squalor.  Chalets next to cinder block with rocks holding down fragmented chunks of tin roofs.</description>
