First Day of Hurricane Season

If its the start of June then that signals the official start of hurricane season down here.  While things usually don't get interesting until August but not always.  When we first moved here four years ago a very eraly season tropical storm was busy dumping several days of rain on Cayman making for a very wet first few weeks.  This year our hurricane kit will include lots of baby stuff and we have already decided that anything over a category two and we are sending Mom and baby off island (now no cheering for hurricanes by our Texas relatives just so you can see the little one!).  Construction officially began this week on our new classroom building at the college and you can feel the excitement each day as people see the building start to go up.  It should be done in July depending on weather and other possible (like government) delays so with any luck we will have it available for classes this fall.  We have three weeks left in the Spring term so we are busy finishing that out and registering students for the summer.  Should be a quiet June travel and family wise but hectic work wise.
