This afternoon I was experimenting in my kitchen (using my home-grown squash and cilantro!) when I heard Shawn call my name from the backyard.
I went outside and he pointed up in my avocado tree and said "Want to have iguana for dinner?" I look up towards the tree and while squinting, try to make out the supposed iguana that he is talking about. I can't see a darn thing and while I continue searching, he goes into the house and comes back with his slingshot (I bought it for him while in Ojojona last week giving an HIV training...definitely never thought he'd actually use it. Haha.)
I head back inside to check on lunch and while stirring my squash/onion/cilantro/sausage experiment, I watch Shawn sling rocks into the avocado tree. I yell at him that he is crazy but am definitely enjoying the entertainment.
A few minutes later, I hear the destinctive sound of an animal falling out of a tree. I rush outside to see an iguana trapped under Shawn's foot. He grabs it by the tail as I run back inside to retrieve my camera. I then snap some pictures as he ties it up to wooden chair on my patio.
I'm not sure if we are going to eat if for dinner or what...but it certainly made for an eventful Monday afternoon.
