After more than 14 months away, Lief and I have returned to Los Islotes.
We arrived at Tocumen International late last Wednesday afternoon, spent two nights in Panama City reconnecting with staff to the extent current quarantine restrictions allowed, then flew to the Veraguas coast early Friday morning.
“What’s it like coming back after having been away so long?” a friend asked over drinks Sunday afternoon. “Is it strange?”
“No, in fact, it’s not,” Lief replied. “We’ve slid right back into our life here.”
Another friend reminds me often that success is the result of heroic habit.
Lief and I have taken that advice to heart as we’ve worked to organize our lives together these past two-and-a-half decades.
