Poco a Poco

It has been nearly two months since updating Friends Journal.

There now is well water💦 providing the basis of life

Architectural plans for the first two BnB’s
Are in the process of finalization via a Panamanian licensed architect.


We are currently in the midst of dry season (December – April)
Which includes a fair amount of wind 🌬️
We are learning that the casas that will grace this tierra
Shall be designed to have intimate protected exterior seating areas
At the south side of structures
Given strong prevailing winds in the dry season from the North / North-East.


From here🍒 to there ☕️

  1. The quantities of ripe coffee beans in January…the “end” of the season are awesome and picturesque!

  4. This is exquisite. The plan unfolds slowly but surely. Of course there are challenges and catalysts, otherwise wheres the growth, the faith and the spirit to be alive with expression? So proud of you both for daring to dream and put your creativity out on the leading edge! We are all sending our blessings to you and love the updates!!

  5. Thanking those of you who have read our update, and most especially, those who have responded (!) as we feel your Loving support … Thank you🫶 One of the things I miss most from our Community, both on, and beyond Maui, is the sharing of intimate heart space. Know that you are missed🤗

  6. Love reading about your journey and seeing all the progress you have made with Grace. We loved our visit with you and Andrew on your Maui farm and look forward to visiting you in Panama in the nearer future. ❤️

  7. You’re so beautiful Jeannette! & So are those bright red coffee fruits. Can’t wait to visit you and Andrew one day 🤍🌹

  8. Hi sweet ones. It feels like I need to take a group of yogis over to Panama sooner than later. They could also include a few peaceful women. We could find a retreat center relatively close by. Waddaya think? Then all sorts of wonderful support can come from the mainland as you wish!

    You are truly experiencing the seasonal shift and flow of this next journey. I acknowledge those ups and downs along the way. I know it’s cliche’ but likely it’s “keeping you young” while adding or losing a few grey hairs. Oh well. I toast or shall I say roast to the adventure! I love you both!!!!
