Maybe not the week to store a couple sheets of plywood on the coachroof..

This is good news, a quick shot of reality, and some not-so-good news...

The really hard part about living in the "H" prone area of the Caribbean is not the actual storms but the continual stress factor of keeping an eye on the weather and the hassle factor of having to work around possible outcomes.

Case in point, I wanted to buy a couple of sheets of plywood so I could finish up a bunch of projects and get started on the new dinghy. Of course, invest 93L put the plywood buying off til it's past us in whatever guise it may assume. So, not a lot of projects gettting finished this week...

That being the case, the weather at the moment is awesome and the best time to be in this area of the Caribbean is actually "H" season as the more obnoxious tourists are gone, the weather (except for those pesky "H" tings) is pretty wonderful, and I can sit on my foredeck and watch turtles cavort to my hearts content.

There's a lot to be said for simply sitting and watching turtles.

Might even get a little diving in...

So it goes...
