If you call it the Bongo Cam, folks will know where it is. You could call it the PEOPLE Cam, since it's the best place for a wave and a sign for the folks back home.

Well I feel bad that poor Cecil was out there all alone, bare-nekkid, and nobody joined him. I have a feeling I'm going to sunburnt ALL over, though. So he better hurry up.

I'm off to the graveyard in a half-hour. We have quite a few Revolutionary War veterans in the Park Street Cemetery and I think I'll talk about them today. Several of them died in upper Mew York state, two killed by Mohawks in 1780. If it weren't for their sacrifices we might still be a colony.

I have to admit when I think *wreck* I usually imagine a pirate ship. Did the sailboat go down there? Or was it dragged into place?

Rusty. Not sure about the wreck. I kind of assumed that it sank there. Enjoy your excursion.

Katie. Never heard anyone mention sharks on Bon, so I don't think they have any. Annie B.

One must always apply plenty of sun lotion. You know it makes sense.

I wonder if our group of calesthentics and volleyball were a group from Jong Bonaire or something like that on an outing for the morning/afternoon...

Bongo's Bar Cam (BBC, too!) would be nice, escpecially since they footed the bill to allow us to continue to see wonderful images from Bonaire...what do you think, Jake? Permitted??

It would benefit Bongo's tremendously, no doubt....they deserve it!

Land Shark is one of the Margaritaville bars, too. Land Shark Cam or Sand Shark Cam seems to be appropriate for the Bar Cam - but I love Bongo Cam.
