4 Aug. contd.
had a snack and nap until 3pm. Putzed
around then went ~ 4:30 to set net over the
water tank Dr. Price suggested we try.
Much trouble with the net (tangled - & a new
one!) but finally got one up ~ 7pm. Carla
then went to make dinner & I pulled Carolina
out until ~ 9 when I went up to eat. Took
nets down ~ 10pm having got 11 Carolina,
1 Glossoplaga longirostris (?)
& 1 Pteronotus davyi - the naked backed
Mormoopid. A nightcap, read a little & bed
by 11:30pm but not to sleep until early AM.
2 to 5 Aug.
Simla vicinity
Up at 8:30 & quick l'faut then off to airport
to meet John Calle & Mary Ann Rogers' plane from
Guatemala via Caracas. The plane was
1½hrs late & they were not aboard. We had been
worried by lack of message from them so sent
a telegram to Woke outlining the situation.
Back to Aruba to find stores closed for lunch
so back to Simla for lunch. Took an unintended
nap 'til 3pm & decided we had to process late.
This took until 6:45pm so decided not to set
tonite & read & relaxed. To bed by 11.
