[News Boquete] The Food for Life Is Here!



In today's world our foods are filled with genetically modified chemicals.  Those beautiful looking heads of corn and melons
usually contain cancer causing pesticides that fight the bugs but also will kill us all over time.  There is a reason cancers
have increased 3000% since the 1920's and its our foods and the environment in which we live.  Since you have changed your
environments already, lets get really healthy and change the foods you eat.

It's time to take back our families and give us all the health we deserve and with 153 Whole Foods that's exactly what we do.  
We have searched all of Panama looking for fresh organic foods that we can deliver to your table and we have found them.
We now have vendors from Italy, Costa Rica, Mexico, Russia, and other areas where we know the dangerous chemicals aren't used on our foods.

153 Whole Foods is your locally owned and operated family organic grocery store located in downtown Boquete.  
We have grass fed, hormone free beef, maybe some of the best you will ever have!  We have real organic eggs with
free range chickens who are fed real food and not your traditional chemical filled chicken feed.  We have the very best organic
fruits and vegetables anywhere.  We are small but we are always growing and we are always taking requests.

If you have never shopped with 153 Whole Foods, we would love to earn your business and welcome you to our family!

Eat Organics, Eat Local, Eat Panama!

[News Boquete] THIS DOG NEEDS FURTHER VET CARE -- Help us find him



THIS DOG NEEDS FURTHER VET CARE

This dog was hit by a pickup truck late Saturday afternoon in Alto Boquete across from the Colegio and near the road to Wilson Bridge.   We picked him up and got him treated by a local vet.

On Sunday, he got out of our fenced yard.  We need to find him because he needs further vet care and medicines to help heal his broken leg. 

He has a splint and black bandage wrapped around his fractured left front leg.

REWARD for helping us find him or returning him for needed additional care.

Please call:  6792-1954  or 6688-4419

Thank You 

ESTE PERRO NECESITA MÁS CUIDADO VETERENARIO

Este perro fue atropellado por una camioneta la tarde del sábado en Alto Boquete frente al Colegio y cerca de la carretera al Puente Wilson. Lo recogimos y lo tratamos con un veterinario local.

El domingo, salió de nuestro patio cercado. Necesitamos encontrarlo porque necesita más atención veterinaria y medicamentos para ayudar a curar su pierna rota.

Tiene una férula y una venda negra alrededor de su fracturada pierna delantera izquierda.

RECOMPENSA por ayudarnos a encontrarlo o devolverlo para la atención adicional necesaria.

Por favor llame al: 6792-1954 o 6688-4419

Gracias

Hello everyone!!
Our Cali Tour successfully booked!
Bogotá, the main capital of Colombia and the original city where my parents are from is our next destination!
For those who are seeking history we will visit amazing spots like the Gold Museum, which holds the biggest pre-colombian collection of gold in the world.

Our trip starts Thursday May 9th flying into Bogotá and for those who might want to celebrate mother's day, Colombia celebrates on the same date as many other countries, Sunday May 12th.

We will be staying at great location in Bogotá, the biggest city and capital of Colombia.
The trip will include 2 nights in the colonial and historic town of Villa de Leiva. On the way we will be visiting the famous church of Zipaquirá, which was built inside of a salt mine.
We will visit the Guatavita lake, one of the most famous spots where a big part of the Legend of El Dorado was founded.
Great areas to go for dinner, shopping and also areas to walk freely and safely!
Of course, you will have my assistance 24/7 the whole time :)
City tour to the historic area of Candelaria, visit to the hill of Monserrate to get an amazing view of the whole city.
Bogotá is 2,600 meters above sea level so it will be chilly at night or during the day if the sun is not out.
Price per person is $950.00 dollars in double occupancy and $1,200 for a solo room.
Includes : lodging the whole time, breakfast, private transportation, airport pick-up and drop off, full bilingual guide (me :))
Right now Copa has a great deal from david for less than $300 back and forth!
I have my own travel agent Andrea Cook who can book your tickets very smoothly and for those who have pensionado status will get the discount on the airfare :)
Book this great adventure with 50% deposit down and the balance 2 weeks before the trip.
Please feel free to reach out to me on my WhatsApp number +507 65962070 or by replying to this email for more information and itinerary.

10:30 in the BCP Theater

Your $1 admission helps us keep the doors open


Tuesday, February 26 – The history of aviation in Panama. Ibu Alvarado, born and raised in Bocas del Toro, has a diverse background as a banana farm administrator, Panama Canal Hydrologist, and as an aviator. In his talk, Ibu will address the history of Panama's aviation: its roots, its development, and its future. Ibu has been involved in aviation since an early age and is still active in the field. His flying experience spans from local, regional to international operations throughout Central and South America. He has recently published a book about his aviation experiences.  Moderator: Paul Myers


Tuesday, March 5 – Bonnie Williams and Hank Landis, our government representatives for this area,  will review such things as immigration requirements and the "new" law, proof of life filing, responsibilities and limitations of the wardens (now called American Citizen Liaisons), how to address federal benefit problems, etc.   Moderator:   Joanie Feuerstein


Tuesday, March 12 -   Medical cannabis - With cannabis recently legalized in Canada and
rapidly being legalized throughout the USA people have lots of questions about its medical uses. Dr. Ted Harrison will talk about what cannabis is, what its effects on the body are, and what conditions it has been shown to be effective in.
Dr. Harrison will be joined by Diane Heideke and Elizabeth Worley of Cloud Forest Botanicals.   Moderator:  Cheryl Schmidt


Tuesday, March 19 – Dr. Paul Myers addresses "Thinking Geologically Expands your Universe".  Geologic thinking transforms your relationship with the physical world.  It confronts you with the extremes of bigness and smallness, and infinite time. When and why is this experience important? How do geologists fit in the "modern" world?  How is geology relevant here and now in Boquete, Panama?     Come, join the discussion.  We will expand on it in the field later.  Moderator:  Sheila Strunk


Tuesday, March 26 - TBD


Tuesday, April 2 "Experience Boquete by Bicycling", will describe local bicycling experiences, describe different types of bicycles and will explain how you can join and explore the beauty of Boquete and David by bicycle.  Presented by David George, Muzz Laverty, Manuel Y Maritza de Samaniego, Javier Christensen, Jeanne Samaniego, and Genie Vidal   Moderator:  Paul Myers
