I'm actually back safe and sound in Ohio now, but thanks!
More photos are in the process of being uploaded (mostly of the storm), so have a look if you like.

Glad all is well, man, great job with the pictures. So the storm passed before you left?

[Bullitt]

Thanks bruce. Actually we got lucky and the storm zigged south of the island more towards Guadalupe and Dominica, so we didn't get the brunt of the storm. Curtain Bluff has facilities to provide fresh water and electricity during a storm, so our only concern was being able to leave the island on our scheduled flight.. which was right after the storm was projected to hit the island.

Any clue as to how far from shore that lobster trap would have been planted? In the bay? Open water?

I honestly couldn't say exactly where it came from. We were on the southern end of the island and the storm was coming north and east towards us so it could have been carried by the storm surge from a long way off. Or it could have been from Cades Reef which was a mile out from Curtain Bluff. It was made of sticks and wire so I imagine it belonged to a local fisherman, meaning that it likely wasn't out in open water but more likely from the reef or another bay.
