Starlift Panyard








Pictures from the Military Parade








Independence Day

The 31st marked T & T's 45th Independence Day. I went to the military parade, and then to the Starlift Panyard for a brunch and lots of entertainment. It was really fun, but Felix was coming through the area, and we got tons of rain.

Impromptu Birthday Party





The two boys (Romeo and Andre) were invited over to swim, and it turned into a small b-day party for myself, with dinner and a homemade black forest cake included! That was the night I ate gizzards. On the left it's Bunny (the big man), Andre, Me, Romeo, Maylene, and her sisters Lynette and Janice (Janice is married to Bunny). Look at that cake! I ate it for dinner for a week, and still had to freeze 1/4 of it. On the right, Maylene is taking the picture, but Simon, her husband joins us for the picture. I just got out of the pool, so please excuse the "lactation."


"Ladies Night" at the Rotary Club


I was invited to attend, and speak at, a Rotary Club of St. Augustine meeting a few weeks ago. "Ladies Night" is when the spouses are invited to attend so they can see that the men don't sit around playing poker and telling dirty jokes all night. It was a very nice evening, and actually ended with some jokes (unfortunately about stuttering).

This picture is of Almarie (the Director/Co-ordinator of DRETCHI), and Indar Ramnath (current president of that chapter of the Rotary, whose wife is a kick-ass cook), and myself.
