Today, I helped begin to clean out of one of the TWR houses. They are preparing to make this house handicapped accessible for a new family who has a child with spinal bifida. TWR will be adding a handicapped accessible bathroom and another bedroom. So, Rhonda Barker and I were removing the linens, dishes, etc. We were checking them over for stains, tears, cracks, etc. We ended up with several bags of discards. If you ever come to visit Bonaire, be sure to bring towels, small rugs, and sheets. They are more expensive and of lessor quality than those from the States. I wish I had realized the need and I would have been sure to pack some in my luggage.

I was warned that there were scorpions in that house, so I tried to be careful when I pulled things out of the cupboards, etc. We didn’t see any live ones, but did find a dead one.

I brought home some of the sheets to wash and they came out nicely. Only one set will probably have to become a rag. It was rather tattered.

Larry was supposed to come home a little ‘early’ (before 6:00) so we could find a place to swim. Unfortunately, the transmitter was not working properly, so we will not be going swimming tonight. It is too busy across the street where we usually swim. ‘Happy hour’ is well under way and payday was today.
