She was actually photographing her friend who is standing on the wall behind the tree.]]>

You Can’t Always Get What You Want Masaya, Nicaragua 2013

The city of Grenada was for the most part pretty clean. Not so down the road in Masaya. There’s a billboard on the way into town with a message that translates as “I want my Masaya clean.”]]>

I’d want the job of the guy in the window in the white shirt.

Purple Rain Grenada, Nicaragua 2013

Much of life in Grenada is lived outside on the street, and rain didn’t seem to affect that at all.]]>

Fall Protection #1 Grenada, Nicaragua 2013

 There’s a lot of construction work that goes on in Grenada that would make OHSA cringe. This guy was at least wearing some fall protection. Still I don’t think you could get me up there where he is, at least not in enough of a relaxed state to be worth beans at actually getting any work done.]]>

Repurposed Grenada, Nicaragua 2013

This building in the city cemetery obviously used to be used for something much more formal and elegant than the storage shed it serves as now.]]>

For Sale Grenada, Nicaragua 2013

A prime spot on a busy street in Grenada, inexplicably left wide open for the curious to investigate. Granted it’s a bit of a fixer-upper but given all the bars on all the windows around town, I imagine it might easily become more so if left unsecured long enough.]]>

Old and Older San Juan de Oriente, Nicaragua 2013

These replicas of ancient pre-Columbian effigy vessels provide an interesting contrast with the recent Disney characters. Come to think of it though I guess those Disney characters are pretty ancient too–almost as old as me. I guess it depends on what time scale you are using.
