Another weekend

Friday was the day Quentin went on his field trip. They had someone come in to the school totalk about this "brand new park" that they were going to on Mariah Bay, but he said they ended up at Sand Dollar Beach, with all the students thinking they were very far away from "home". He said that he knew where they were because of the boats parked right in front of them on the beach of this "brand new park". They ended up eating their lunches at Chat n' Chill and the boater kids he knew were talking to him. So basically we paid $10.00 so he could get a ride to the beach he goes to every day!!
Last night the grown-up Singing Frog came over and we played dominoes until 11 p.m.
Today, Jeanne and I are meeting the Sailing Club to present their "cheque". We were going to the Exuma Foundation Book Fair, but Singing Frog is here for the morning and Quentin may have an opportunity to go sailing with the sailing club, so he wants to wait and see. Overdraft came by yesterday to see if he would be here today, in case they need more "rail meat".
It was a very red sky this morning but we are supposed to have good weather for the next few days. Singing Frog is heading to St. Martin to haul their boat before going home and some other boats are also heading south to get out of the "box"...the hurricane zone. *sigh* Maybe we'll do that next year.

FYI- next Friday is Earth Day. Here in the Bahamas we are planting trees. You should do something to save the planet at home. Yesterday we bought 3 cheap plastic glasses. We will take them in our packs, so when we order a drink or a pop, we don't need to use disposable glasses. We can keep ours and re-use them. A small grocery bag will keep them from getting anything in the pack sticky or wet.
Good morning!
