Hi Everyone

Sorry for not writing for so long. We moved from Antigua language training and began life as house-sitters. We started working at the William Cornelius School. I am working on a project called Hope Co.fe -Responsible Coffee sales. This could affect your life in the near future if you thought that you would like to market some coffee as a fund raiser. I have also started modifying the Trees for Global Renewal business plan. Poco a Poco (little by little) as they say down here. Sheila will be involved in teaching some of the staff English three days a week, and helping in the classroom as well.

I planted a garden, however half of the seeds did not germinate. The peas, squash,zucchini, melons and green beans germinated however, the lettuce, onions, corn, and brussel sprouts were a no show.

Sheila and I moved our 30th wedding celebrations to June 22 and enjoyed something we would never have done living in Canada. We lived with 13 others on a catamaran for 6 days. We went snorkeling however realize that this activity was on the edge of our abilities and noted that most of the others were younger, in the 28 to 34 range. It was a good time with a little fishing (I caught a barracuda) swimming and great meals. A highly recommended trip if you are a strong swimmer. I was not sea sick until back on shore. Now the cruise is over but the ground keeps moving. Sheila feels it worse than I do. Pictures of this trip will be posted as soon as we can down load them.

We are preparing for a little Canada Day celebration on Sunday. We will have a small group because some of our team are now in Canada.

OK well I will try downloading the pictures and return!

Tim
