Today was another day in the rock garden. Zoe came out with a rake to help and it is starting to look pretty good (see photo). It really helps to have another person working with you. I figure we are about 2/3 done. When it is done, the guys will build a stone wall around it (you can see where they started - you also can see some of the rocks that I have pulled out of there). Dave and Glenn mopped the floors in the cafeteria and kitchen today as well as swept the patio. Today is Randy Fish's 29th birthday. He is the manager here and Nancy baked him a cake, Barb frosted it, Roy outlined the fish, and I decorated it - a real community effort (see photo). We have made up a song to the tune of Yellow Submarine which the staff will sing for him tonight. Barb wasn't feeling well around noon so she went back to her room to rest and I help Nancy and Roy serve lunch to the kids (enchiladas). Laura and Pete are making dinner tonight - veggie lasagna as today is meatless Monday. After cleaning up the kitchen, Dave and I went to Greater Lameshur to snorkel. We had a great snorkel. The students came over and snorkeled with us. There were a lot of fish near the rocks on the east side of the bay. I saw another ray - they are so graceful in the water. One of the students saw a lion fish and she will bring her camera to dinner so I can see it. On our way back to camp, we saw an iguana just sitting in the road. I ran to our cottage to grab my camera and he was still sitting there when I got back (see photo). He wasn't too happy to see me so I had to use my zoom lens! I am sitting in the cafeteria writing this blog and Emma, the cat, is sitting on a picnic table on the other side of the screen. I think she is picketing for dinner, but it is only 5:00 so she will have to wait a bit yet. Life is good here in St. John.
