It Is a Small World

September 20, 2010

On this day, the couple who rented one of our apartments on a long-term basis moved in. They are Bob and Harriet Cates. Bob & Harriet got frustrated with the life in the big city, sold everything they had and moved to Costa Rica in May of this year. They first settled in on the South Pacific Coast, but found that to be too far away from San Jose with not a lot of things to do to occupy their time. In addition, that area can get pretty hot during the day. So, they decided to check out other areas. Somehow, which I'll tell you later, they contacted Stef to get some advice on the Atenas area. They set a date and time to visit us and showed up right on time.

Now, would you believe that Bob & Harriet are from Nashville, Tennessee? Yes, I said Nashville, Tennessee!! They told us that they got Stef's contact information from a friend of theirs who is a mutual friend of our friend Carol Milam - Who would have known. Anyway, after we chatted for awhile, they asked if we knew of any places that were available to rent - Well guess what - Stef leaned back and said "right over there" while pointing at our guest house. They took it on the spot and went back to the coast to give their notice.
This is Bob & Harriet with Stef


These are two very wonderful people who are an absolute joy to have staying with us. Bob is retired from the jewelry business where he owned a store close to Nashville. Harriet is retired from an architectural firm in Nashville. You will be hearing more about Bob & Harriet as I work to get this blog updated.

Folks, you are welcome to stay here as long as you want.
