Trump has scheduled Las Vegas for Wednesday. My son in PR has reported that he has water service now, San Jun suburb. Here is a satellite view of earth, and I have set it at Puerto Rico. I went to closest view and then all around the coast. I see that only San Juan has more than a very few cranes for unloading ships, and even San Juan does not have a large number, compared for example with a port like Baltimore. In fact there are very few real ports in PR, mostly just indentations. Then I followed the roads out of San Juan over to the most heavily damaged SE area. They appear to be minor roads, mostly traveling through forest/jungle, with little in the way of housing or settlements. In other words not many people to clear the roads of debris. I wish I could get a real time satellite view to better see the damage there. Cll, you live there, how valid are these observations?

I hope she doesn’t have to walk around in wrecked areas in those shoes.

San Juan Mayor is an a**hole.

Trump greets her with a “Hello, how are you?” and she barks back at him with “Welcome, this is not about politics!”??

What a Biatch.

One of the cranes they had at Ponce went over in the storm.

Here are additional articles on PR situation. Check dates written. The second listing was Oct. 3 and suggests that the death toll, now at 34, will continue to grow.

Here is some exciting news about outside help with PR’s electrical problems. Has over 300 comments, some quite interesting. Pardon the source.
