Good evening readers,  I first want to say Happy Mothers Day to my mom in Tucson Arizona, this flowers for you!!  I was just telling someone just today that without my mom buying Aimee and I our first computer for our wedding we would probably still be in the stone age!  I remember how scared I was even thinking we were getting one and had all these nightmares about having to go back to school or take night classes just to learn how to use it??  But thankfully this was not the case.  She walked us thru everything step by step and in no time at all we were surfing the web as fast as dial up could go, so once again momma thanks for all you have done for us!!  I wish I could be there to take you out to dinner but am sure the man of the house will take care of that for me.  And for all you other special mommas out there Aimee and I wish you a wonderful Mothers Day as well, thanks for taking such good care of us!  This was the only flower blooming on the moss sedum the morning I took the picture of the hermit crab in the fossil shell, maybe he ate them all?? 
 
Our little island is going to blow right off the map if this wind keeps up, today was down right terrible!  You should see the big waves that are rolling in making for very unpleasant diving unless you go down real deep.  I had planned on diving the Superior tomorrow but that’s not going to happen now, it’s just way to rough. 
 
After work I took the dogs to Saint Joris for a short windy walk.  I noticed this evening for the first time that those red spined cactus were blooming?  The flowers are super small and must only bloom late in the day and into the evening because I have never seen it in the mornings, will go back tomorrow evening with the macro lens.  Aimee is out with friends this evening, the dogs are asleep and I need to get to bed.  I will see you again tomorrow, once again Happy Mothers Day!!  Curacao regards, Barry
