Good Morning everyone! I have that insomnia thing right now. Joel is snoring. So no St. Pat's baby. But today we have 2 neighbour's sharing a bday! One is turning 30, the other 29!!! It would be funny if 3 people on the share the same day LOL!

Anyway, no breakie yet, but I will leave some coffee and tea just in case someone would like some.

Back to bed for me! See you in a few hours!

Goedemorgen Eileen and everybody showing up later,

Finally start of the weekend, which for me consists of studying,studying,studying, etc.etc.

Monday in the afternoon (8am bonaire time) I have my very first-of-many exams! It's hard to pickup learning again.

Have a nice weekend! cya soon

JAAP

Good morning Jaap and Eileen, country style sausages this morning for breakfast, organic and yummy. First come, first served. I'm off to buy a new gas fire. Catch you all later.

Good Morning again! Good Morning Jaap (Good Luck!!) and Julia! Thank-you for breakfast. No sleep at all for me this morning, so I will try a nap midmorning.

Good Morning Eileen, Jaap, Julia & All to Come

Eileen - hope today's the day for you Try to get some rest
Jaap - good luck with your tests
Julia - thanks for the breakfast - yummy

some from the archives

Good Morning Julia! No it's mall walking day. I keep forgetting we are not overdue yet! The boys were playing with construction equipment simulators on the puter. I have no idea who enjoyed it more, Quinn or Daddy.

Now it is breakie for them. They are acting like 'twins' this morning!

Good Morning Donkeys!

Good morning everybuddy,

long time ne see/read...

I am in a new project and camming is prevented in that company.

I hope everyone is well.

Eileen, Torsten hopes that little It will come on his birthday (23.3.). May be...

Whish you a nice day,
Ilona

Good morning all.
Any official word on the North cam? I hope it's what Lisa said...being readied for the move to its new location.

I babysat last night for my almost 11 mo. old grandaughter, and the neighbor's 14 month old and 3 year old. Daaaaaanng. lol But it was fun. They fell asleep one by one and got special time. I felt like I had really accomplished something when they were finally all asleep at 10:00! Daughter, son in law and the neighbors went to Ybor and it was their turn to have a blast.

Morning everyone! It's kind of quiet on the thread today. Maybe its the "day after" affect from St. Paddy's day? I found a fish tail...


I have a bunch of work to do so will be mostly in lurk mode. I hope everyone has a great day!

Jeanine, at least you know what you have to do today! I don't know what to do....my plans WERE to work on the new house, polishing it up and beginning to move some things. Argh. The realtor assures me everything will be ready by tomorrow at the house and that we can close Monday afternoon. We'll see. I'm not going to hold my breath!

Sorry things are up in the air Kathy. I'll keep good thoughts that all goes well. We had problems with our closing too. They hadn't moved out! When we showed up with the truck, they were still loading up. They came out one door while we went in the other. Not good with the pets either, we both had a dog and cats. In the end, it all worked out and I'm sure your situation will too. Think positive!

Jaap, If I remember correctly I read before that you are testing for your MCSE. I did that a few years ago - ALOT of hard work, good luck! I think there were 8 tests back then and I had to retake 2 of the 8 :-( But I did it. Be ready for each test, relax, read each question carefully before anserwring, and you'll do fine. It is hard to get back into study habits!

Good Morning Ilona, Kathy, Jeanine and Denise! Kathy, I am crossing my fingers for you that you will be able to close!

Ilona! That would be great!! I have a March Bday/events list on the puter and have added Torsten to the list.

I am going for a nap as I didn't sleep well. I can only sleep on the side and my arms and shoulders get sore. Joel is out getting some groceries and Quinn is napping too.

Have a great morning!

Hi Denise, you did remember correctly, I'm on Bill's tests I did certification MCSE nt4 in 1999 and since then I only did some PADI courses, so I have to get used learning again.

Thanks for your support, I'm working hard on it! Let you know.

Lunch time here. Then mall walking! (Shhh, shopping, if Joel lets me!! LOL!)

Good Afternoon Everyone! Weather got cold here again and warm weather is gone for awhile.

Eileen, off to shopping myself with Tiffany. She needs cleats and softball stuff for varsity ball. Not my idea of good shopping but necessary. Been busy all morning cleaning and doing laundry, so a breakie is needed.

Would much rather be here on break and work.....

Good morning everyone...woke up late after our St. Patricks Day dinner...we had lot's of corned beef, colcannon, soda bread, Irish fondue! Finally got to sleep in too!
Sounds like everyone has been very busy too!
Looks like there must be some leftovers

Good Morning / Afternoon and / or Evening, Everyone!!

Having a late lunch - Poached eggs on toast - everyone is welcome to join in!!

Nice to see all of the cams back up, and refreshing as well!!



I hope everyone is having a great Saturday

Debbie, know the feeling - it got cold - again!!!

See you all a little later - I've got some cooking to do!!

Bill

Happy Saturday Everyone!!
It's turned out to be quite pretty here today - no rain. It figures as I have to be here at work (inside) to get things ready for the accountant
It looks like a beeeeaaauuuutiful day on Bon


Even caught some fishies!!!


Have a great day

In case anyone even noticed, the North BeachCam went out around 8:07am yesterday. Cable went bad for some reason. I put in a whole new cable this morning. North BeachCam finally went fully live again around 12:46pm.

I also spoke to the head technical guy at Flamingo TV, and he tells me that they indeed did finally isolate and resolve (he hopes) a problem that should make our Internet connection more stable for the WebCams image upload from Bonaire to our servers in Massachusetts. I hope he's right...

Jake

Thanks again JAKE!

Thanks, Jake! Btw, do you have any idea what causes the u/w cam to go nuts sometimes?

Fuzzy divers!

I found something to do today.
I shopped for summer clothes. hehe
It's so summer here.

Thanks Jake and yes we did notice. Some of us thought you were moving the cam to its new location.

Kathy...just keep up that talk and you might end up with some Northern BTers on your front door step.

I'd be glad to put you up or show you around anytime Jeanine, once I'm moved! lol We're a good stopping point for a trip to the Keys, too.

Elvira might come down next weekend w/her honey, but to Lakeland, so I'm hoping that works out that she can at least stay a day!

Pretty as a picture?

Kathy are you in Tampa, or will you be after the move? Wes and I have been wanting to do the overnight thing at Big Cats, but then don't know what to do in the area afterwards. It's too expensive a flight for just a day or two and way too long a drive. Just curious for future reference.

Packing it up...

Kathy, I'll be right down - Parcel Post, COD, ROFL

Looks like the start of a nice, golden sunset....




Going out for dinner one of Karen's brothers 60th Bday!!

Have a great night, everyone!!

Bill

Superturtle, did we post the same pics? Sowwy!
Jeanine, let me switch to the laptop and tell you. Larry's home and wants his 'puter!

LOL, GMTA, Kathy!!!

Bill

Jeanine, we'll be about 7 miles out of Tampa. I work right in the heart of Tampa, on the bay and it will be exactly 11 miles to work for me from there. About 16 to the airport.

Usually flights to Tampa are cheap as it's a hub for so many airlines. I don't know about the Big Cats thing, but there is Clearwater, Tarpon Springs, St. Pete, just everything in the world surrounding the bay that is just so wonderful. Ft. DeSoto was the no. 1 beach in America last year, just a few miles from here. Lots to do here, lots to see. And diving close by.

Bill, you and Karen have a great time at the BIL's.

Lovely sunset. Now I think I'll go watch my own.
Everyone have a great Saturday night!

Kathy,

That looks like power noise. Could be someone's doing something in the ocean with a motor nearby, or on land near the cable for the ReefCam.

Jake

J, I was pretty sure it was the blender at Bongos. lol

My sunset is just now starting. See you all tomorrow.

Good Evening everyone! Annie B, I hope you are feeling better and thankyou for the flicky!

I found some pj's for Quinn and Little IT, matching with bulldozers and concrete mixers on it, just for daddy!!

OMG....the blender at Bongos! Well we will have a lot of blender noise when I am there for New Year's. I'll try to keep it down. LOL!!!

Big Cat Rescue is in Tampa and it is a fabulous large cat sanctuary. I have been wanting to visit them for a while now. I forgot about Crystal Springs being so close as well. Hmmmm...maybe spring break next year?

Ok...time to go night night and dream a little dream of Bon!

The divers in the fuzzy picture above is myself and my buddy.
