Devon: "It's a man's world!"

Trust me...as solemn as the introduction of our blog may seem, this motley crew is far from serious!!  Our life is just a little bit crazy and we tend to take it ALL with a grain of genuine Salt Raker salt!  I see you've let the stoic setting of our posting fool you.  Fine...I'm gonna help you out on this one: Let's take a look at the noble patriarch of our clan and see where we go from there...
Mmm-hmmm....That's the joker right there!  This is the root of our somewhat nutty family tree and despite ANYTHING he tells you, he is to blame for the insanity we call life!  I hope you are smiling just looking at this picture! The Cox family name in Turks and Caicos came mostly, as far as I know, from Blue Hills (now known as Providenciales).  However, Devon Kyle Cox was born and raised on the great island of South Caicos (still affectionately called "East Harbour" or "Big South" by natives).  Harbour is a community that was powered in its hay day by fishermen, salt rakers and men of general commerce.  With amazing focus, that same community has produced the majority of educators, politicians and corporate professionals in Turks and Caicos today.  Most people who hail from South Caicos are fiercely loyal to their country and deeply committed to serving it.  Devon is no exception as he chose to become the nation's first native Electrical Engineer and to use that degree by serving as the Director of Transmission and Distribution for Fortis,TCI, the premier power company in Turks and Caicos.  All that and he STILL manages to make this cap look good!

Now, Devon has quite a few hobbies and we will get to all of them...what is the point of a blog if you can't get knee deep into people's business, right?  But one must follow good form, so I hope this brief intro sets the stage for the life and times of the Coxies!
