I've looked at a map of Grand Cayman in an attempt to determine where we were, but I don't think it was Rum Point. This was a small inlet on the grounds of a private all-inclusive resort that the cruise ship has contracted with to allow tour participants to stop and snorkel for awhile. It was on the north shore. Grand Cayman is a pretty small place and difficult to get lost. We did have a good laugh with the tour guide when I wondered out loud why in the world anyone would need a Hummer on this island! Yes, there was a Hummer driving around. He said, "The same reason they need Jaguars and 170 mph capable souped up Mustangs!"

The best place I know for a great choice of "Enabling Tools" of all kinds, is a sponsor of GardenWeb, called Gardenscape Tools. Just call for their free catalogue. (they have a special one for Americans and it gives all the shipping charges.) Their catalogue is small, however, it is packed with many items in full colour, with exact descriptions of every tool and which tasks they will best serve. As I mentioned before they are a great place to do business with. They have a toll Free Number 1=888-472-3266. If this number does not work from the US their other number is 416-698-5339. They are in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I have compared their prices to some discount stores and they still manage to be a little less expensive. Actually, they are not expensive at all. If you are an American you will get a real bargain, because your dollar is worth so much more than the Canadian. You may order by phone (that is what I like best) because their well informed staff can answer all your questions immediately. Also, their return policy if very good, should you receive something and it is not what you envisioned they will gladly refund your money. May I suggest, even if you have little knowlege of gardening, it will help a great deal if you get excited, as that in and of itself will provide your parent with the encouragement they need at this time to restore their own self confidence in an activity they once enjoyed. Get the catalogue and go through it with them and perhaps if they can see for themselves all the items that can help them, it might go a long way to restore their lost confidence. I know from experience how depressed and bitter a person can become, and how worthless you feel when you can only remember the time before you became disabled. If I can be of further assistance, please feel free to e-mail me via GardenWeb and I will happy to my utmost to help. Good Luck Punky.

There are so many wonderful folks on these forums, and I thought I'd pass on this request from a magazine I get. A person sent this message. "I am disabled and cannot travel. I would be thrilled if readers would send me postcards of the landscapes, flowers, and animals in their geographical regions. S. Garlotte,7501 Madison Dr. Biloxi, Ms.39532 So, come on, all you great people, lets see how well we can do. And if you can, pass the word on to other regions, too! Thanks!
