Each of us were able to have a piece of the Caribbean lobster that Philip caught last night.\u00a0 He sauteed it last night in garlic butter and it was quite good. \u00a0Since this species does not have claws, it does not have as much ‘meat’ as other lobsters.<\/p>\n
Today is the last working day for our complete team, so most effort was put into winding up their various projects.\u00a0 The ceiling was finished in the new lab, including an access hole and cover.\u00a0 Some control wiring was connected in the dummy load\/ antenna transfer switch.<\/p>\n
Phil from Alabama and Steve from Kansas moved in the rest of the inductors (coils) and capacitor mounting plates into the phasor room and bolted them to the floor.<\/p>\n
Ralph, Jim and I met with Daryl and Jonas to go over what was completed and what still needed to be done.\u00a0 We generated a list of materials that needs to be ordered from the U.S. and shipped to Bonaire.\u00a0 After some discussion, it was decided that, rather than multiple shipments being made, all the items would be procured and gathered at Jim’s shop to be packed into a small crate.\u00a0 This would then be shipped to AMCAR in Miami.\u00a0 AMCAR has regular shipments to Bonaire.<\/p>\n
Ralph and I went back to the duplex for lunch and siesta.\u00a0 After a short nap, I went back to the transmitter site.<\/p>\n
Our team at the site was gathering up all the tools and returning them to their proper places.\u00a0 Many of the tools were their own.\u00a0 They also cleaned up all the work areas.\u00a0 By 3pm, everything was packed and ready to head back to the duplex.<\/p>\n
In short order, back at the duplex, the team washed and cleaned both pickups.<\/p>\n
All six of the younger boys wanted to go for a last swim, so I drove them to the salt pier and joined in on the cool-down swim.\u00a0 They again spotted a medium sized sea turtle and followed it around for a while.\u00a0 They also found quite a bit of live coral just beyond the pier. [Most of the beautiful live coral close to shore was destroyed by a rare hurricane about 20 years ago.\u00a0 It takes a LONG time for coral to reestablish itself.]<\/p>\n
Supper consisted of meatloaf, cole slaw, rice with broccoli, lettuce, peach slices, pudding cups, and cookies.\u00a0 I think two older members of our team have put on a little weight with these meals suited for active young men!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
