I'm pretty sure the hr person (the one from colebrook) told me it hardly ever rains here and then only briefly. Then someone told me yesterday that the rainy season is just just starting. It rained &/or was overcast most of yesterday and last night. This afternoon it's beautiful again. I think I'm going to go snorkeling after dinner in just a little while. I'm told there are 2 huge morays near the old bridge foundation right behind the chow hall.
I've been warned to be on call on Sunday for the EOD team which is coming on a C17 from Honolulu to remove a number of UXO's found all around the Island.(EOD =Explosive Ordinance Device; UXO =unexploded ordinance). Since the Typhoon last year people have found a lot of stuff that had been buried for a long time. I jsut hope they don't start until after I get back from fishing in the morning. The boat goes out about 8am and the line is they always catch a bunch. They say though that you have to pull your fish in really quick or the sharks will get 'em.
For some reason I am still unable to send email from here (spent about two hours trying to figure that out yesterday), but I am receiving, so send to me and then look here for any reply.
Speaking of which, Jeanne, you can see that I am not a good person for a recipe chain letter (unless you want the "recipe" for Mexican Cheese Chicken!!!) so you better ask someone else.
Well it's chow time, so I'm off to try something spicey and unpronounceable, or maybe turkey a la king, depending my level of boldness. Aloha
ps Bill you're invited.

Rain. Huh!! Maybe I am not the back luck rain person on the backpacking trips.
Hah! Another proof there is a god and that he does have a sense of humor. Remember the last time we backpacked in Washington and for lunch after we left the airport it took me several minutes to convince you to go to Thai restaurant? It did not seem that Thai food was in your top ten list.
