    Hey Tacogirl …found your blog on the AC forums. I spent 2 weeks there last year and absolutely fell in love wth the place. I’m anxiously checking your blog to see what’s going on and the aftermath of Dean. My prayers are with you.
    I hope everyone is safe (animals and people!)

    Hi Tacogirl….i think you are doing amazing stuff here. Dont know your power situation at present. Just wondered if you knew the wherabouts of Greg Smith (Turtleman on Ambergris Cay) and his boys. He is my brother in law and his wife is flying home from UK. We are all of cours worried. Thinking of all of you.

    Hi you guys, I am sure you know the drill. Fill everything with fresh water, washing machines, bathtubs, etc. Have plenty of candles and canned food. Stay low and hang on. They are saying storm surge of 18ft and you guys are dead center. God bless everyone on AC, we are preying for you all.
    Cheers.
