  • Welcome to Costa Rica. I grew up in Canby, OR where my dad raised sheep. when he sheared at the coast, we would always stay at the Gearhart Motel. At night we would sit on the roof of the car to watch the movie at the drive-in across the hiway. I know Gearhart has changed a lot since then. Anyway, welcome to CR. I'll be watching your blog.
