Something very Tico

I wished I had had a camera yesterday when I was walking home from the bus stop.  I didn't, so I will have to describe the scene for you instead:

There is a river on the right side of the street.  The family that lives on the side of the street opposite the river has decided that this part of the river bank is their garage.  Whether or not it is part of their property, I don't know... but somehow I doubt it.  They have been parking a quad there some days and other days, they sit in rocking chairs watching people go by on the street. 

As I walk by, there are four of them sitting in their little area - chatting, having a good time.  Across the street, where their house is, two young boys (maybe 7 and 9) are playing a soccer video game on a large HD flat screen TV that is sitting on a little table in the middle of the sidewalk.  The TV has a cord that leads all the way up through the upstairs window.  The street has literally become their living room.
