Life at Casa Roach has been unusually quiet, leaving me feeling uninspired and too lazy to craft something witty and insightful. I think Tico time is taking hold.
So, here a few fun photos from the weekend, which was spent helping Carlos, aka Dirty Harry, and his amigos fill in potholes on our residential street. It can take months, if not years, to get the deep holes in local streets fixed so Carlos picked up a few bags of cement and took on the job himself, turning up the tunes from his truck starting at 5:30 a.m.
There’s nothing like a blaring Jimmy Buffet and his Margueritaville to inspire a party, even if it spoiled a Saturday morning sleep-in.

- Carlos supervises as his amigos, including my hubby, right, prepare the pothole for filling.

- Craters like these are a hazard in every local road, making driving perilous.
-
- This is man’s work, says my little girl from the safety of the sidewalk.
-
- The job is done. Fine work gentlemen. Now back to your posts.
