We went for groceries today and just happened to pass by Grenada's new Prime Minister Thomas Tillman... in the grocery aisle! http://www.gov.gd/ (He was just elected in July.) We noticed an official-looking car sitting out front, and there seemed to be a bit of excitement when we walked into the store. But no one gave us a second look. As we walked down the soap aisle, he passed us on his way to the front of the store. (By the time we got to the check-out, he was gone.) He had at least one bodyguard with him, and I'm sure there was more security there, but it seemed to be no big deal. I could have easily touched him as he passed me.
Today started out with a very strong and hard rain storm, but once it passed it turned out to be a beautiful day... with big puffy white clouds in the sky! So we ran outside and finally rolled the last bit of paint on the side wall of the house. The only thing left to do outside is some trim work.
I'll leave you with a photo of Scott in our car... with our old La-Z-Boy recliner on top, ready for delivery to a friend of ours here. Who says we need a "truck"?!

You should have stopped the P.M. and said "hi". He's very approachable and his bodyguards are there mainly to prevent Opposition supporters (or the previous P.M.!) from trying to knock him out. *smile*
I just discovered your blog; I'm always on the lookout for Grenadian blogs, whether expat or local.
