Called them last summer and they responded within 15 minutes. Came to the see the job within two days as planned. Three days later I had a complete set of specs and costs and a timeline. Job done well, on time and below budget. I suddenly felt like a customer not a supplicant.

Two cars for sale

Two reliable cars are for sale. First is a 2000 Nissan Pathfinder SUV with 4 wheel drive and second is a 2002 Mazda minivan. Neither will win beauty contests but both have been serving well on the island for 12 years and have plenty of life left in them. $400. Each. If interested call 2982 after 10/2.

A good start. While you are shopping consider adding marine flares to your list. Overkill? When you are in trouble, how much help do you need? As much as you can get is the answer.

Sailing around here without a radio is just not smart. Rethink that plan.

Free artificial Christmas tree

A very realistic 8 foot Christmas tree is looking for a good home. When lit and decorated it looks like the real thing. Packs down into a 6 foot long box. All the pieces are here.

The good news is that a Good Samaritan has cleared several fallen trees. The bad news is that there is another tree down and you cannot currently get through.
