Hello, I'm Kathy Colman and I write about Eleuthera and other things.
Wishing you all – dear readers – a very Happy Christmas. By the time next week’s blog is posted Christmas Day will have been and gone ! Another year coming to a close….. As I always say at this time of year do pay attention to people around you who may be on their own, some from choice but many […]
Christmas is coming in Eleuthera – and fast ! This week I have been putting out our Christmas decorations which always takes longer than you think it will – right ? These days at Sprawling Towers we have done away with the inflatables that we used to love having when we lived at Buena Vista. Two years ago we donated […]
This past week we have been at a couple of gatherings which I will tell you about. And then some catch up with news on what is happening here in the lead up to Christmas. Firstly we were hosted by Shelby White and her family for a lovely Thanksgiving dinner last Thursday. There was family and extended family as there […]
Living totally off grid is now viable here in Eleuthera. Bob and I went to see such a house and enjoyed a delicious brunch with owners Scott and Paula. They are just around the corner from us here at Sprawling Towers and their views are spectacular. The house is run by solar power – they have Tesla batteries to store […]
Sad news first, very sad news actually – and then introducing Island Nest in Governors Harbour to you…….. Dear Kathy Clavelle from Rainbow Bay died in the early hours of Sunday morning in the US. She had pancreatic cancer which we all know is a brutal disease. Some of you will know that she is Dan Blow’s sister and she […]
So on we go through November in Eleuthera – where are the weeks going ? Only six weeks until Christmas but here in Eleuthera it is easy to not have to pay too much attention to that build up thank goodness. I do love the holiday season but the over commercialization can cause so much pressure to people. Being here […]
This week we had an odyssey in Rock Sound ! I had to drive down on Saturday to pick up some of Rudge’s pills from the vet at Noah’s Ark Animal Centre and asked Bob if he would like to join me on the road. The answer was a resounding yes and so off we went…. Now Dan has told […]
Yes – it is great news that our restaurants are now opening back up in Eleuthera. People are just beginning to return to the island and it is lovely to see familiar faces again….. La Bougainvillea is open now – Bob and I went for lunch on Sunday to show our support and although it was quiet it was good […]
This week I feel the gentle rhythm of life here in Eleuthera. Sometimes it is good to acknowledge and enjoy the quiet gentle times – even if the weather is very rough and blustery. The tides are high in the afternoon when we walk the dogs on French Leave Beach and the seas are very rough and choppy. No taking […]
Yes dear readers – a bit of this and that this week in the blog. Fortunately we escaped Hurricane Milton although we have had some rainy , blustery and wild weather. On Monday this week we had a huge thunderstorm with major lightening , power outage and lots of rain. the power was out throughout the whole day – not […]
Here we are in Eleuthera hoping to dodge Hurricane Milton which is heading for the west coast of Florida. It is not heading our way at the moment but we know all too well that these storms can be unpredictable and do change course sometimes. Hurricane Dorian was heading straight for Eleuthera in 2019 but changed course during the night […]
This week news of a book club and an exciting food update in Governors Harbour. Here we are in the first week of October ( already ! ) and it is good to have a couple of things to report to you. I did write last week about poor Bob coming down with flu while we were away – he […]
