There is always something new happening on Tinian. While Terri and I have been gone…

The new Pizza parlor is still being worked on– I thought it would be open by now– but the wait may be worth it, as the project is looking very good!

I have fond memories of this big hill… but I noticed that the new time/temperature sign is gone again! If there was a college on the island, I would think it was a frat-boy prank…

There are two new basketball backstops in the Broadway Estates… but I have yet to see anyone actually use them…

The brand new amphitheater is still being worked on (I believe that the original opening date was going to be last Christmas). It is an amazing and beautiful edifice, but to date I’m not sure if anyone has been able to use it…

Like the new road, the only negative thing about this project is the gigantic hole in the ground they have dug… and to my amazement, continue to dig deeper!  Perhaps we can use it as an emergency water storage for the island????

The community Gym now has a new roof and new hurricane shutters! I guess I know where people will be heading when the next big storm hits the island!
