| Looking southeast from the
southeast shore of Providenciales. This is the site of a
housing development which, thus far, consists of dirt
road, cactus, and one house. This photo was shot on the
site of the second home, which is just now (February
1998) getting underway. Shows the typical Provo
vegetation -- about 2 to 3 foot high cactus and scrub.
This is typical of all of the Caribbean
"desert" islands such as Aruba, Curacao, Provo,
and many others. |
The utility lines running
to the homesite from the road. The island is mostly
limestone, so digging a ditch like this is a huge
undertaking. |
Near sunset on the north
shore of Provo. This picture shows the typically
overcrowded, tourist-infested Providenciales beaches. |
| An
egret wandering around the grounds of the Ocean Club, an
upscale condo/hotel on the northeast shore of Provo,
about 8 miles from the site of the VP5FXB station. |
Hard
to see here, but the egret is in the center of the photo,
trying to look nonchalant as he plucks an occasional
gecko out of the shrubbery. |
Lunchtime
by the pool for the egret. |
