Some days when I am working, I stop for a snack break and tea.

We dropped our plastic bottles off at Jamaica Environmental Trust’s office recycling depot. We talked about what recycling is and why it is important. A lot to think about.

Oxygen tanks sit outside the UWI Hospital on Monday, Aug. 23.

Today is the third no movement day. Yesterday I went on the road to donate blood. The roads were not busy, but there were a surprising amount of cars, hopefully people going to get vaccinated. The entrance to UWI was crowded with people, some connected to oxygen tanks. On a positive note, the parking lot of a vaccination site was packed with cars.

It is a “no movement” day today. My latest for Reuters, from Friday.

We watched Grace pour water on us. The next day was dry and sunny. No injuries or deaths reported. Another storm escaped.

My latest for Reuters.

Grace is mostly gone, but yesterday was rough. Heavy rain and winds, flooding, trees down and landslides. And this was only a tropical storm.

An avocado seedling planted by Minister Floyd Green in Hope Gardens, part of the three million tree-planting initiative, I assume.
