A Start...a glimmer of hope!

After reading, the posts on two Roatan Yahoo Chat Groups, for the better part of two years, I have decided to try blogging.

The main objective for creating this blog is to provide a factual source of information about certain aspects of Roatan and the Bay Islands of Honduras.

My knowledge of Roatan has mainly to do with scuba diving, coral reefs, the impact of development on those reef ecosystems and weather patterns. Although, after living and working here since 1970, I do have some knowledge of the island's history and biogeography.

In addition, from time to time, I may talk about things like high pressure compressors, dive equipment, alternate energy systems, alternate energy on an island as a way of life and island social and economic conditions.

Have a great day!
