...The water is out in our part of Mangilao tonight. We had pressure problems this morning but now there is nothing to pressurize. The little Chuukese kids who live next door are probably lost since they play with the hose almost all day. When they're not playing with it their mothers are using it to wash clothes outside -- the old fashioned way -- applying soapy water, then beating the clothing on the concrete, followed by a hose rinse -- if the children are kind enough to share. But none of that is happening right now.

...We're supposed to move tomorrow to our fourth living situation since arriving on Guam two months ago. However, we'll see if the people we are currently housesitting for make it back from the States tomorrow. They are scheduled to fly through Hawaii but travel through there is messed up because of the earthquake and related power outages.

...A few thoughts on the economics of bananas.
