airstrip in amparo

an american has bought a finca (farm) behind the cemetery and is building an airstrip. suspicious thoughts cross my mind about a drug smuggling operation. maybe i worked at the cop shop too long. mimi said he didn't buy the finca to farm it, just to build a house. i wonder why anyone rich enough to build their own airstrip would want to live in amparo. escape a hectic rat race or something illegal. i am reminded of movies or newscasts of drug smugglers in the remote jungles of central and south american countries. san carlos is the closest place for decent shopping and it's 3 hours away. this is a quiet, peaceful, beautiful little pueblo and i would really hate to see anyone cause any problems here.
