Tropico Beach ~ The cannons YOU made.
« on: June 29, 2011, 10:47:29 PM »
Just a fast note to say thank you of course and also to let everyone knows I am still alive and pursuing my dream. I do not know where to post such things Double D  ? I have been in the Islands now for 2 months .,  or Manor will be finished probably in 2 more. www.tropico.ph shows the manor build ., ther youll know why I have been abesent. Once the Manor is finished we will roll right into Resort building ., and then of course lots of pics of the CANNONS YOUVE made for me ., as well as the new carriages ect.,  Internet cafe and the speeds here in the jungle dont help much for posting.  Take care everyone ., I'll be back much sooner next time.

     Glad to hear from you, Rich.  Looks like your SCUBA Resort is coming along nicely.  Great pics!!  Can't wait to see those swivels.

I walks in my old brown gaiters along o' my old brown mule,
With seventy gunners be'ind me, an' never a beggar forgets

I've wondered about how you've been doing, so it was great to read your note, Tropico. The 'Manor' looks to be coming along nicely, also pretty swank, which is only befitting for the residence of a 'Sea Baron'. Keep in touch!

Ahoy Captain! Give us some progress pics when you start on the carriages.
