More this week about our travels – with Kathy and Bob back in London after visiting Roussillon and Marseille in France. For a lot of people who come to stay at Governors Estate in Eleuthera their vacation is about sun sea and sand – often there are family reunions and meeting up with friends. For us taking a vacation usually […]

So this week the blog – instead of being about Eleuthera – is about travels with Kathy and Bob – in France and London. Living in a place like Eleuthera means that our trips have a different slant to many people’s idea of a vacation. We usually fly to London first – as we did this time – and spend […]
Next in the series of Best of Eleuthera we take a look at a new venture – Eleuthera Community Farms. Nearly everybody who either lives here or spends any time here is always looking to be able to find fresh fruit and vegetables – ideally locally grown. Awareness of the vital importance of fresh produce for a healthy lifestyle is […]
So next in my series Best of Eleuthera here is a look at Haynes Library in Governors Harbour. The distinctive old pink building right on the harbour is a real local landmark. It is a focal point for much of what is going on in central Eleuthera. The government owned building was slated for demolition in the early 90’s – […]
Ever since I was small my favorite pastime has been reading – I have a real passion for it. Here in Eleuthera both Bob and I – also an avid reader – often spend the evening reading – so it is always a delight for me when a shipment comes in and has a few new volumes to sit on […]
How to go from liking a color to obsession with it is just a few easy steps I have discovered ! Living here in Eleuthera I love to have bright colors around me and orange is one of my favorite colors – or so I thought . I decided it would make a fun little post to talk about orange […]
In the Best of Eleuthera series here is a fascinating dip into the oral history of the island with Joy Pyfrom – a resident here in Eleuthera since 1946. Joy came to the Bahamas as a young woman in 1946 immediately after the Second World War and married local man Loraine Pyfrom a few years later. She is a wonderful […]
Gratitude and appreciating what is good every day of your life is one of the things I always associate with my late father – also called Bob ! He made me understand that being happy is not found in reaching some mythical state – when you have this much money in the bank or that new car or when you […]
Every now and again – not too often – I have to take a day out to Nassau – business to take care of – mothers to be sorted out – sisters to collect ! So last week with my 87 year old Mum in tow we took the Pineapple Air flight first thing in the morning off to Nassau. […]
Yesterday I saw this amazingly colored bat moth caterpillar right here in Eleuthera – it was at least 3 inches long … Orange and lime green – two of my favorite tropical colors ! It was not alone either. These fabulously colored caterpillars turn into bat moths – or money bats as they are sometimes called. Amazing that something […]
