It's funny how with all the planning we do in life we sometimes forget to plan a day off. This is surprisingly and often true here in Belize as life has many of us very busy. I planned my day off to maximize my fun starting with a sunrise drive with Dick,we had fun rocking out to the Lobstermainia pool party 2013 song list - link is to fb invite 32 yes and 20 maybe, it is going to be a fun party. Toucan jam ...

Last Friday Commodore Andy and I were on official San Pedro Sailing Club business in Belize City - hunting down deals for Sunday Charity beach barbecue. On the way over we got to land in Caye Chapel, both of us were ready to get off the plane and say hi to Evan and enjoy one of our new favorite islands. Good thing we were both in the mood to shop otherwise it would have been all to easy to abandon our missi ...

The city is still working on replacing the cobble stones on Coconut drive and the dirt road detour is still in effect. As a result we are still kicking up major dust and I am sure many of us would not mind some rain to clean things up a bit. The good news the Town Board opened up one of the roads further so now we have 2 options instead of one. When you turn left at the alley beside the orange store instead ...

If you remember Paul's birthday blog from last year Caye Chapel Golf taking a Mulligan, And we set off like a herd of turtles on our way for our  Caye Chapel golf day. We were doing ok then all of a sudden the waves got worse and the people at the back of the boat started getting a salt water bath, so we turned around and back to San Pedro. We all agreed to take a mulligan and that we would have an even bet ...

The San Pedro Sailing Club is a very worthwhile cause that can use your support. Commodore Andrew Milner identified a need to give the island kids an activity that builds confidence, life skills and offers job potential down the road. The kids also develop a great sense of teamwork. Since it's start the sailing club has done amazing work teaching the kids to sail and raising money to keep the program runnin ...

Double D stands for Damn Dusty and that how it has been the past while on the Island. It has gotten to the point that some people are wearing bandanas as dust masks. I am sure partly why my sore throat has been so hard to shake, it did not stop me from wanting to do another early morning joyride. Late last night as I was finishing up yesterdays blog post, I got texting Dick to set our wake up time for today ...

What a busy day, it started with a sunrise drive with Dick at 5:00am and then we split up for a couple of hours and regrouped for an errand run to town.  While there we hit 3 banks paid a parking ticket checked 4 stores for a camera to computer chord and stopped off at BEL to make sure they knew about the power pole that had been run across from the Belize Medical School. It is hazardous looking especially ...

Yesterday Anthony Philip and I went on Reef Radio and TV's morning show with David Marin to talk about what the San Pedro Branch of the Belize Red Cross has been doing and give updates on the First Aid Program. One of the exciting things SPBRC has been working on is to get an emergency warning siren system for the island. We recognize a need to be able to reach a large portion of the community in a short am ...

Last night we had planned to do date night at Carlo and Ernie's Runway Bar & Grill. I am glad we ended up running into Dianne and Tracy in the parking lot which was packed with carts, they were just leaving. When we got to the bar, many of our friends were already there helping celebrate the new venue. It was a unanimous agreement that this was a great spot and that it was going to do very well. We coul ...

Last night the Midtown Violets [Karen Waldrup and Ashlee K Thomas]  were continuing their Spring in the South Tour and played at Pedro's Hotel. Tacoboy was helping them get ready for the show that morning and they said the one thing they needed was microphone stands, so he set out to make that happen. It is not uncommon for people here to shop by phone, send the money to Belize City or put it in the busines ...
