The King of Panama

Who? Jeff Lane  Where? Other nations have their kings and Presidents, we have ours.  And isn’t he regal?  This peacock’s castle is the La Playita resort near Pedasí in Los Santos province on the Azuero peninsula of central Panama.

A “fair” view

Who?  Jeff  Where?  In Boquete in the province of Chiriqui in western Panama, there is an annual “flower fair”.  Due to unusually heavy and destructive rains in November, there had been considerable concern that the fair would not be held this year.   But with great determination, the residents got the job done and this photo displays just one very tiny corner of a beautiful and successful event!

Buildings do not build themselves

Who?  Jeff Lane  Where?  In Panama City, the pace of construction is continuous and rapid.  The skyline has changed dramatically in the last five years, stunningly in the last ten, and all but unbelievably to folks returning after fifteen years.  Someone has to do the work and here we see them hard at it.  They are the backbone of our city.
