AAAAHAHHHHH we are so excited to be going back to the states on Dec. 20th!!! NYE plans are up in the air right now. but we will be in TX on the 20th and leaving for CO on the 29th, hope to coordinate a meet up with some friends from SF, who will be in Houston the same time we are.
Things have picked up on the island. We went back to work on Dec something, had a large crew of surveyors out here and started clearing the center lines for the first golf course fairways, got those done yesterday. Jerry, Flamingo Bay owner took his plane out for a test run last weekend and he flew over the property, told us it looks like a huge maze. I am having dreams about the place and getting lost in all the cut outs that we have done, some are wrong and the dead end so that equals lots of extra walking.
Went to a party last week at the Cat House, going again tonight. A couple from the states that throw a party every time they come to the island which is the first 2 weeks of every month! Met a lot of other ex-pat locals and made some great contacts. Including a couple who are both pilots and have a helicopter on the island! can't wait to take a flight in that.
other than working, things are the same round here. the weather has been so-so. some great sunny days, then the clouds blow in, which is great cause it's hot as hell up in the brush. watching lots of movies, and TV, Jerry hooked up an antennae so we get 6 local channels now, more football watching than I care to admit.
Looking forward to some down time and some good, HEALTHY food, this fried crap is killing me.
So, 7 days till Nassau, first trip for us, then to TX. we have lots of last minute things to get done and just found out that a crew is coming out while we will be off the island. Hope to have some 4 wheelers out here after the new year.
love to you all, C&K
