Hello, I'm Kathy Colman and I write about Eleuthera and other things.
Exciting news this week that The Potlatch Club had a soft opening with the hosting of the Jazz Festival last Saturday and also news of a great party. Although we didn’t actually attend the Jazz Festival concert we were the first group to eat in the beautiful stylish restaurant – The Fig Tree. So called because of the huge spectacular […]
Hello dear readers – this week an Easter update and plenty of eating in Eleuthera….. As you may know we have had Bob’s daughter Sami and her husband Billy here for 10 days – over from London – and we have had a wonderful time with them. Much of it was spent sitting together , chatting, catching up and just […]
This week news of Educators For Eleuthera Summer Camp 2024 so I am handing you over to Dr Claire Verden Hello once again wonderful readers of Kathy’s blog! Kathy has afforded me the opportunity to talk to you about our upcoming plans for summer camp in Governors Harbour. A quick introduction, or reintroduction. I have been partnering with schools […]
An upgrade to Governors Harbour Airport is partially complete. Of course quite a few of you will already know this if you have arrived or departed from GHB in the last few weeks. Bob and I haven’t travelled since early January when construction was still ongoing so we are a bit late to the party again ! I visited the […]
This week a quiet blog celebrating the gentle rhythm of life here in Governors Harbour….. It is very busy now with visitors – absolute peak season as it is spring break in the US – so many families come here to be together. French Leave beach has plenty of people on it all day – so the dogs have to […]
Well dear readers take a look at the Island Farm now ….. I first wrote about it in July 2014 – nearly 10 years ago which has gone by so quickly ….. The expansion of the farm and all the produce and food that they sell is wonderful. Tuesdays and Fridays – the baking days – continue to be extremely […]
Yes dear readers – late night shopping in downtown Governors Harbour ! As of this week Burrows grocery store is open from 7am till 10pm every day – including Sunday apart from Tuesday when it is open from 10am till 10pm. This is a godsend for any visitors arriving either late in the evening or on a Sunday – there […]
This week I just want to tell you how much we enjoyed our Sunday lunch at the Sunset Inn last Sunday. Mrs Jay Fernander quietly works away six days a week producing a lot of food for takeout as well as serving customers in the actual restaurant. It is freshly cooked for each order and is very well done. There […]
A few things this week, a bush fire right along French Leave Beach, a favor to ask you and High Stack is for sale now. High Stack is the house that my Mum , Mary, lived in. After her death last July we had a huge job of clearing it out first of all. Then we assessed it and realized […]
A nice week meeting a reader of the blog, visiting a great farm and sharing a lovely dinner. The weather has been pretty vile of most of this week – very high winds and a lot of rain so we have felt bad for 2 lovely women that we met on Sunday. Daphne from Montreal and her friend Lily from […]
Well have you tried The Helm yet in Governors Harbor ? They opened on New Year’s Eve but we didn’t try it until last Friday. We had our friends Justin and Lindy from Texas here for 3 nights and on the first night we had vegetarian shepherds pie here at Sprawling Towers and then went out to have a drink […]
So last Sunday Bob and I discovered Delish in James Cistern – a bit late to the party as they have been open for 3 years ! We have meant to try it but you know how the best of intentions can fall by the wayside ….. Last Sunday was very cool – for Eleuthera – and very breezy and […]
