Some folks might wonder what we do here as missionaries on Helene on our possible "day off" = Saturday! May is known as one of the hotter months in the year (followed by September in second place) and we have just this last week come into the reality of this fact. Waking up sweaty is such a different sensation than not waking up sweaty. The sun is tremendously hot even in the early hours of the day that no longer do Larry and I sleep in til 6:30 or 7 and scurry around to get some work done before the heat. The "heat" is already pouring in at 5:45 a.m.! So, to beat the heat, Dominic and Deirdre and I decided to trek to Northside for a swim in the cool Caribbean Sea. Wrong! It was warmer than bathwater! But to our surprise, some of our young friends had been busier than us. Never have I seen so many iguanas captured in one place! Their legs are tied behind their backs so they do not claw. The boys never told us where they got them, but they certainly were proud of their work. They were looking forward to a good meal. And I was simply excited about cheeseburgers on the grill!
