Giant Porcupinefish

 
Good evening readers.  As I am finding out many folks out there don’t even read these blogs I send out they only look at the photos and I know this for a fact because I always am quizzing friends on a daily basis!  Busted!  Yeah you know who you are. 
 
I had a very busy day.  I finally have a good working knee again so I took the dogs and my trail building tools and off we went to Saint Joris.  I have been wanting to start building a new little trail in the area we hike so finally today was the day and I started it.  Curacao is so dry right now and it’s the perfect time to cut a new trail and today it went very well and was very easy, I just followed an already existing game trail!!  We stayed out there for around two hours and every 20 minutes or so I would walk the dogs back down to the waters edge and let them cool off in the water, it was really hot by 10:00!!  I left all my tools out there because we go out there so much, it should go pretty fast.  After washing the dogs and eating breakfast I took off on a wild-goose hunt in search of something for Aimee’s up-coming birthday on the 22nd.  While out I quickly found out again that there must be another holiday that we know nothing about, turns out almost everything was closed due to Carnival.  At 5:00 I cleaned up the bike and put air in the tires and took off on a long overdo ride, it’s been 10 days!!  The ride went well, my knee did well in fact riding felt better than walking! 
 
Here’s another big beautiful Giant Porcupinefish, I just love these things!!! 
 
Heads up all, Aimee has a new e-mail address, PLEASE make a note of it, aimeedolphins@yahoo.com she would love to hear from you all as well!  Till tomorrow, Barry
