    Are you guys kidding me?

    Do you really like sloshing through the MUD from November to Feburary? AND
    the DUST for the rest of the year? Are you proud when the tourists fall
    down because the road is so rough that it's almost impossable to walk?
    Remember last year when volinteers had to get out there with shovels to fill
    the massive potholes, because you could't even drive down that road with out
    getting stuck?

    The road needs the improvement; BUT with real drainage, and paved with sand
    colored pavers, like the airport parking lot. This will help bring West End
    into the -20th- Century. Most Carribean islands, even the off the path
    islands, have improved their roads in a like fashon. It'll still look
    rustic and beachy, but will be much more user freindly. And, speed bumps
    are a must, because the taxi drivers must have learned to drive on a
    racetrack, down the middle and full speed ahead.
