Happy New Year

All of us at Selva Del Mar wish you a happy and prosperous 2008. We look forward to the year with hope and optimism.

Here are some photos taken by my son, Gray Gardner, within a few miles north and south of Selva Del Mar.

In this picture taken last May, Cody and I look south from Los Perros toward Pie de Gigante .





Down on the beach, it was firing...













Our friend, the great local surfer, Oliver Solis, knows these waves well.















And it showed.













"Pops" floated this one.














Ok. Back to business. Over the past year, we made a lot of progress at Selva Del Mar and the improvements continue.

We have finished the gaviones project along the road at the top, near lots 1-7.










We put in a drip system to help the peanut grass along during the upcoming dry season.













We are trenching for the underground water and power to the creek side lots. We need to name that Calle. Joe, you have 3 lots on the Calle, do you want to name it?

Enough of the progress update.

Pictures of ditches aren't too interesting, so how about a picture of this nearby hidden beach?






















Or how about this left point break just south of us. .....












And when the day's adventures are done, it feels so good to come home to Selva Del Mar. The view from lot 6. Tona anyone?
