UPDATE on the salvage operations. To make a long story short, the government still has not given the group permission to recover the pieces of the lightouse. They are hopeful it will come this week. ONCE salvage operations start, they will have to pay a penalty for everyday the weather is to rough to work, so they are wishing for good weather for a period long enough to get the job done (saving funds for the rest of the restoration).

Reminder, the LIMITED time offer I made earlier in this post, will expire at midnight WEDNESDAY eastern time.

The St. George Lighthouse Association thanks those who have sent checks already and I as a member thank-you also.
