Hmm..The rainy season in DR is in November to February and hurricanes at fall.

Now we are having a real fine spring. The sun is shining from a clear blue sky
and the birds are coming back, the lawn is growing and everything is so pure
green. We have removed a couple of old bushes and planted American
blueberrys instead. If it continues this way we will have a very nice summer.

Looking forward to meet you in the Worl Cup final in hockey.
It shall be nice to kick some Canadians asses.....twice.
