our building's wiring mast: dozens of fascinating (and a little scary) repairs and splices

Colombia photographs: boats along the Palomino/La Matuy beach

By Jack Brummet, Colombia Travel Ed.

All along the fantastic and deserted beach we lived on at the eco-palapa joint near Palomino, property lines were often demarcated by old dinghys, prams, canoes, and rowboats. . .often with amazing textures, colors, and half-baked repairs. . .
