About Us and Our Business
Jim and Donna moved to Roatan in 2001and have lived here full
time ever since. Jim has been visiting Roatan since 1988, built
a home here in 1996, and has witnessed, first hand, the
tremendous changes that have occurred here since his first visit.
Donna got her first taste of the island when we moved here ten
years ago. She really enjoys herself here; snorkeling, diving
and swimming, She also conducts swimming classes for young
children, getting them in the water early in life. She participates
in the annual Triathlon here in the spring. In 2008 she swam the
1,500 meter open ocean course in 22 minutes! Her current
plans include a 20.5 mile open water swim from Roatan to Utila.
Jim spent twenty-eight years with IBM in software development
and the marketing of large, mainframe transaction processing
systems (aka dinosaurs). He retired in 1997 and worked for
several software development companies, in California and
Texas, until 2001. Then it was time to move to the island in the
spring of that year. He has since become involved in the
Meridian at Lighthouse Point project where he can found most
afternoons during the week.
This site will contain general information about Honduras as it
relates to the Bay Islands and detailed information about
Roatan, the largest of the three main islands. This information
will be updated and added to as it becomes available and time
permits.
