I kind of miss the daily reports like we are treated to in the depths of the winter.
Just wondering how the Tobago Project is going...

At the moment I'd imagine Tobago to be a bit of a Wilma-drenched mess. Doug too, since I think he's down there laying some groundwork this week.

Exactly, but during his mid-winter visits we are blessed with a daily report where we meet all sort of interesting people both local and tourist, visit oodles of local watering holes and get a beach report or two. They are great stories that make you feel like you know the people too!
I hope the establishment of the school is going well.
Tobago is a bit east of Wilma's activity, Alpha may have given them a shower though.

Friday and Saturday were a bit wet, and very breezy...Gusts over 45... But on whole it was mostly sunny. hot, and humid. The constant trade winds make the humidity bearable.
I got a full day's worth of meetings done in just under a week! A new record for efficiency in the Tobago government! I have my work permit application mostly completed (still need 3 photos, and a letter of good citizenship from the police dept.) which was supposed to be done in June.... Now I need to itemize and record the serial number of everything being sent down, so the customs guys can get their payola.
Paul, the "Caribbean saga" threads are posted after I return. I keep a small outline journal while I'm on the islands, and fill in the details from memory on my return... Makes it easier to flash forward and back... ;)

...and all this time I thought it was real time. We figured poor Carter was lugging a laptop all over kingdom come, and you were into some exotic Carribean ISP.

If I was using "TSTT" you probably wouldn't get it any sooner than when I do it this way in any case... I had no idea that "Island time" affected electronic equipment too.... ;)
