Beth said they will buy a house in Aruba if that is what it takes to find her daughter. She is NOT going to leave without Natalee. If she is thinking that far ahead she is obviously determined to see this through. I don't think the Aruba government wants her to stay there, IMO. That can't make them very happy.
I like Beth! People outside the South have no idea how strong Southerners are. Rather, they are put off by that soft, delightful accent. I'm sure that the Arubans will rue the day that whoever the perp(s) turn out to be that they chose Natalee Holloway to be their victim.
Do you know if Beth and Jug are retired? I've read that Beth is a speech pathologist, but don't know if she was currently working or not. And I've not heard or read about what Jug does/did for a living.
I hope they have the funds to stay indefinitely in Aruba. I'm sure the expense of staying in the Holiday Inn, meals, etc. are really adding up. Hopefully, there are donated funds available to them.
