To some degree, but really everything. They don't want people just passing back and forth. They want them going through customs and really carefully controlled gateways. The primary way through is a ferry to Columbia.
I'm still kind of amazed that there isn't a road for 100 miles... it just boggles my mind. The reasons I understand but it seems like that would be a fairly important trade avenue.

Agreed, You'd think they could build a road along the coast with checkpoints on both sides.
, but perhaps the risk is just to great. -

They could build it as a bridge, no destruction, at least to the rainforest.

I really hope that someday they put in an elevated high speed rail link. That the forest is controlled by armed drug cartels makes that hard to do, though.

Thanks Giving turkey with family, providing I can keep this cold at bay
Have some pepperoni and some smokes, you'll be fine.

Anyone doing anything fun this weekend?
-
Tomorrow @Mike-Ralston's girlfriend is coming for the day and if the weather cooperates we will be hiking down to Buttermilk Falls in Leroy NY. Celebrating his Bday a little more with @art_of_shred's side of the family. And trying to get a nice long nap in. They are calling for the dreaded 4 letter word here this weekend. I hate the next season.
-
Snow? Already!
-
Oh man, please don't let it start snowing this weekend. Although Connecticut doesn't get snow as early as Upstate NY normally, being close to the water has its advantages. But that means it could be here soon too.
-
Not unusual for us to get a little snow after the 15th each year. But next week will be in the high 60's again so not all is lost.
-
Chilly week here, not even supposed to top 90 all week!

It's a rough life down there, I can tell.
-
We have @ryanov here this weekend. We are thinking about maybe heading down to Isla Ometepe.
-
My friends are having a try a(or 6) new beer night. There is 6 of us and we are each supposed to bring a 6 pack of something we we've never had.

That sounds like a fun idea.
-
I finished Breaking Bad, so probably Netflix and chill, but as a denotation, not the common connotation.
-
It should be... I've had most of the beers that I am able to get in town (West Texas... Coors light is what everyone drinks, so not alot of variety) I'm hoping one of the markets got some new stuff in.
-
You live in West Texas? Or in the village of West, Texas with the world famous kolaches?
