7/28 – Last few days have been productive… couldn’t move into our new place until yesterday… the place is beautiful! I will take a few pics of the view, but it is raining now, and won’t do it justice. We are headed to Tamarindo tomorrow for a real estate training class, 3 hour drive in the morning, and maybe coming back, maybe not. Surfed the last two mornings, and the waves are pretty good. Got my first barrel since moving down yesterday morning, and this morning had a few really nice turns that made me happy.

This morning we went with our friend to check out his dog in action. He has a Belgium Malenwa (not spelled right). It was the most ridiculous thing that I have seen! They did a drill where he was driving in his car with his dog sitting shotgun, a guy jumps out from behind a tree (in a bite suit) and starts beating on the car. My friend rolls down the window attacks the guy and at his command let go and jumped back into the car through the window. I think we are getting one! I would feel pretty comfortable with Sarah walking around with one of them… more later. E.
