I am sorry to report, that at the end of the day a body was found floating in one of our marinas. He apparently came to the Island to check his boat this morning.

He was found late this afternoon by my friend (who owns the marina next door). I’m sure he will be counted as one of Irene’s victims, and rightly so. Prayers for his family.
