Dude. You're trying to add a string to an int. What did you think would
happen?

The traceback tells you exactly what is wrong, and where it is going
wrong: you are trying to add a string to an int.
What you probably want is either gp.AddMessage("LatInt is " + LatString)
or gp.AddMessage("LatInt is %d" % LatInt).
