Monday

Last night was alright. It was bowling night first, then it was martini's out on the deck at Capt. Brooks Tavern to watch the meteor shower (I had to email someone coming back on the plane to get vermouth since we didn't have any on the island). Actually, there were more meteors on Saturday night, but there were a few more impressive ones on Sunday night.

Today our tech guy J.J. was busy. The coral reefers had an underwater camera start leaking on them and he tracked down the major source of our slow internet. Someone had a virus that was sending out millions of Spam messages all day, every day. He'll get his hard drive wiped, but at least we'll be able to use our internet now.

Today was my chainsaw maintenance day and I also did some greenhouse work. We are trying to get a couple of native plants to start growing here again, so I made up 200 pots for popolo plants and chenopodium plants. They'll grow from seeds that we collected on Eastern and Spit island. In a couple years we hope that they'll be all over the place.

You only get one picture today since I haven't taken many lately.

This is a very rare sight right now. I only saw about 4 albatrosses today so within a week they'll either all have died or flown away.
