Again, our thanks also for your report. It was sad to read about the damage to beautiful Columbier. Glad to hear your parents are ok. With the poor communications we finally heard from our friends on SXM and happily all survived, but with property damage. BTW, from our "trip ticker" you will notice that we were scheduled to be on SXM now as guests of our friends for the annual Fete de la Cuisine which IRMA cancelled. Our units at Simpson Bay Resort have been de-roofed and windows blown out. Will plan to return sometime in 2018 (not Feb/Mar our usual)probably in late Spring.
