Talking Last of the motoconcho pics
Well, after 14 months my wife and I have made the transition from life in Sosua to the cold weather of Saskatchewan, Canada. We'll miss the DR, and will always have fond memories (and some not so fond ).

I have some new concho pics from our last couple of months on the island, and have posted them with ones many of you have already seen. They are at

http://www.picturetrail.com/terriandmarc/574317

Jim Hinsch - I posted two of yours from a previous post. If you would like me to remove them please just let me know and I will pull them.

Take care all!

marc

PS - I again ask that anyone that has any beauty concho pics to send them to me via email or post them. I have a buddy that took a pic of a concho carrying two coffins...if it turns out I will post it...rather ironic I say

I missed one last time I was down, I couldn't get the camera out fast enough.

One guy, one washing machine balanced behind him being held on by one hand reaching over his shoulder.

Great pictures. You should post them on the media gallary. I also saw your Niagara Falls shots. They are good as well. We lived there for two years but never got any that good. It always seemed too misty and couldn't see the falls that well.

1) the local paper Hoy publiched a picture of the Iguazú Falls as if it were the Niagara Falls.
2) The PIB has a picture of a moto-c0ncho on the pictures of her trip...

Gonna miss you Marc. You gonna come back to visit??

Great pics, Marc. What part of Saskatchewan are you from? I am from a little town called Lampman, near Estevan. My husband and I had been married in the DR, and on the May long weekend, we will be getting married in a Church in Estevan. And you're right, it is cold out, but it looks like during the week it might go up to around +6-7 C. Have a great trip home.

Thumbs up Hi all
Trina - we grew up in Prince Albert, quite a drive north of Estevan, but close enough given that the highway doesn't have any hills or curves in it...just a straight shot...it is even closer than what the "crow flies" since we don't have to change altitude...lol

As for the media gallery...I still don't like it, and am going to make a seperate post with my comments on that one.

take care!
marc
