  1. You maybe need some of those Rocky Point silvers Denise!!!!The fish would like those! Sounds like you are in a very peaceful place! Thinking of you both!

  2. Well done D&D. I really enjoy following Katipo's voyage as you evince the dreams of many. Thank you. Suwarrow sounds gorgeous. What a shame that the coconut crabs have been plundered. Once the word's out, hopefully some baby ones will be imported.
