We had a great time at the ballpark the other day: Tigers v. White Sox in a pennant race game. Justin Verlander pitched against what’s his name, Chicago’s best.

I stop in at International Aid every so often, to see if they can help me with equipment or supplies or whatever. Every time I go in there the first thing I see is this beautiful wall decor (I guess that's what you call it) on the wall behind the reception desk.

I ran across Spider-Man the other day (I didn’t know superheroes lived on La Gonave!).

After nearly a year of preparation, translating, and illustrating, Starfysh is excited to announce the release of our first book, An Nou Li (Let’s Read!), an early childhood reader.

The final architectural drawings have been completed for a sorely-needed hospital for La Gonave. It will have 44 inpatient beds, a 4-bed emergency room, and two surgery suites.

Saturday morning. It snowed last night. Christmas tree is lit. I'm on my second mug of strong, black coffee (why, Haitian, of course).

I have progress to report, along with a challenge for those interested in making a significant and immediate impact on the island.

I suppose it's a bit unreasonable to think that in these hard economic times one could make a go of a business whose sole purpose is for the benefit of someone else, not us. But there you go.
