Montezuma Beach Home
For Sale: 4 acres (1.66 hectares), lushly wooded and landscaped, with a unique two-bedroom home located on secluded (typically deserted) Playa Cedros. This very desireable property is halfway between Montezuma and Cabuya near the tip of the Nicoya Peninsula on the Central Pacific coast of Costa Rica.

Playa Los Cedros
Finca Los Cedros is one of the few large farms located right along the ocean and within walking distance to MONTEZUMA! Through the center of the farm runs an all year stream, the Rio Cedros. Cradled by primary forest and steep hills, it is a perfect private refuge where you can hike to magical pools and waterfalls, see rare trees and an abundance of tropical animals and birds. The rest of the farm was completely reforested about twenty years ago with teak, cashew, pochote and mango. This makes it part of a biological corridor connecting Cabo Blanco with the Reservas Wessberg, Romelia and Curu. It is our intention to preserve and protect this area.

Piata, Chapada Diamantina, Brazil
The Gerias de Piata is a geological rift, a flat bottomed valley with a high altitude. Piata is the town located at the highest altitude in all of Bahia. As usual I was looking for a project, and started looking for clay.Piata has an open market selling produce, clothing, tools, electronics, and some locally manufactured goods. There were two stalls selling ceramic wares in the forms of clay pipes, pots for cooking, and pots for storage. All the wares were fired at a low temperature and were relatively small. The pots were hand sculpted using coils and the pipes were press-moulded.

Three Winds Pottery
We have been working with clay for the past 30 years in Canada, US, Japan and Nigeria. Our works have been exhibited in public and private galleries in Canada and Japan. Our pottery ranges widely in technique and firing; coil-built, pinched, slab, wheel-thrown and combinations. From primitive to more sophisticated stone-ware and porcelain, depending on where we have been stationed. We use local resources in our pottery where possible in order to appreciate and understand the area in which we live. In Falkland, B.C. we use local clay for our stone ware glazes and for garlic containers and miniature animal figures.
