Finally....after 5 months of hard work, here is my travel tv pilot, "Time Of Your Life". I got the idea for it in Hawaii last Sept. and shot it on Bonaire in Dec.

Very nice, we to enjoy Wil's. Too bad you couldn't combine your video with some under water shots. Bonaire is wonderful above and below the sea. And it's people are great too. Hope to see more in the future.

nice video. As I watched, I kept thinking you are now what Rachel Ray will be in 25 years. (this is meant as a compliment - I like Rachel! My teenage daughter, however, thinks she's too perky).

Mercy - I am so happy for you! I cannot watch the clip from home. But I will watch it on campus tomorrow. I cannot wait to see it!

Mercy, what a wonderful result with your Bonaire project! I felt as tho I were back on island with you thru all of your stops in your footage.

I'm having troubles getting my post on You Tube to show up on the page. With my luck it will end up there six times over! LOL. I'm trying, Mercy! Carole

Ya Carole, it's weird. I got notices of at least 6 comments being left on You Tube, but only one of them showed up. And it's REALLY important that they be on there. If they're not on there by tomorrow, can you all please try again? People are getting discovered on YT, and it is such hot media tool now, I need it!

Great video, Mercy! Love it. I felt like I was already there. Just 39 more days and I will be experiencing it for the first time in person.

saw it on YT - I'm still wondering how the GMC Bulldozer R4 is the top related video??

Bonaire is my 3rd tag word...but there are at least 1600 vids that come up if you only put Bonaire in the search box. Then I put Bonaire travel log and it came up on the first page. I have lots of key words in there, but ya gotta narrow it down a bit.

Thanks, Mercy! LOL. I had a feeling it might show up later on after posting as it kept telling me how many characters I had left to use and then it told me I was over the limit. LOL. It would not acknowledge the posting when it was initially done, however.

New subscriber - first post. I don't see any posts or subject lines referring to birdwatching in Bonaire. Interestingly, Bonaire was the very first birding trip I organized for my local Audubon chapter back in 1982. I returned in 1985 for another tour. During our birding tour, we had the pleasure of Frater Candidas as our local guide. I understand he's passed away. I was cleaning out my library and listing several older, out of date bird guides on Ebay and see that my copy of "Birds of the Netherlands Antilles" by Prof. Dr. K. H. Voous, was signed by Frater Candidas on January 4, 1985. I decided not to put the book on Ebay, but wondered if there's any place in Bonaire where the book should reside? It's in excellent condition. Also, if there are any birdwatchers out there, I'd be interested in any information about some of the less common birds on the island. Thank you. Carol

Carol: go to section on Bonaire Nature... There is a bird watching discussion. My wife went with Jerry in February for most of the day for $50 and had a great time finding most of the special birds of Bonaire. Peter

Mercy, I tried to watch it at work but it kept slowing down/stalling. I'll watch it on my laptop when I get a chance. What I did see, looked great (wil's...YUMM!)

That stock diving footage was just that...I didn't shoot it, I just bought it from Roger. I thought the little trunk fish looked like it kept coming back to the diver, that maybe it liked it? But I know that's a no no...can't change it now though.
