Packing Tonight - New Webcam Soon Come

Well, this trip is a little different. Instead of making sure everyone has everything needed for the beach and a week of fun, I am packing for myself only.

And instead of beach gear, I have tools in the suitcase.

I took Ruth up on coming down and installing the new webcam that we have all missed over the last two weeks. I couldn't sit at my desk and stare at the same webcam pic any longer and felt it was time to do something about it.

I have checked and rechecked my list of tools, so hopefully in the next few days, we will have the dock cam up and going at Ruth's St. John Spice website or wherever she is going to put it.

If enough folks are interested, maybe Ron and I setup the camera and point it back at us while we work....and drink.

Anyone care to wager on how many Presidentes it takes to mount a webcam?

YES!! We all owe you for the huge sacrifice that you are making on our behalf

. How long is the installation going to take and how many Presidente's are they paying you for your services?? And when is the installation going to take place so we can do a count down??

Brenda,
Thanks for the reminder about the ceiling fans. It's good to have a nurse on our team.
Since Ben is arriving tomorrow, I just set all the ceiling fans on "OFF" and put duct tape over the switches. All ceiling fans at St. John Spice are off until this operation is completed.
Here's why:
