11/3/05 Mike's here too

A good friend of mine from veterinary school, Mike Cohen, came down for a visit from Philadelphia. Unfortunately, he only was able to experience one third of the 8 hour layover that I was able to enjoy in Puerto Rico on my way back. Hopefully we'll be able to get some good work done for some of the animals of Grenada and have some fun too!

As I've been reporting here in the blog, I've been fishing several times a week. My luck has been not been what I would classify as good; I'd be much more skinny if I relied on my fishing skillz to pay the bills. But Mike is on this island for less than 24 hours when he catches a good size red snapper!!

His line was wrapped all around mine and as I was untangling the mess I kept feeling tugs on Mike's line from the fish end. He didn't believe me until he started reeling in the fish. Call it beginner's or dumb luck (I'm leaning towards dumb) but it was a good tasting fish!
