Hello, I'm Kathy Colman and I write about Eleuthera and other things.
Saturday 6th December saw the latest Flea Market in Governors Harbour Eleuthera. The weather , thankfully, stayed dry and there was a nice breeze so we didn’t fry in the heat ! Nine people took stalls and sold a variety of goods – plenty of household goods , Christmas decorations, clothing and shoes – and of course Matty Pinder and […]
Donating blood here in Eleuthera is a very simple but vitally important process. Under the auspices of Chris and Alison Gosling – the two fantastic people who are at the heart of HACE – the Health Association of Eleuthera – the blood bank people come from Nassau twice a year for a blood drive. This has been going on for […]
So here we are in late November getting back in the swing of the season at Governors Estate in Eleuthera. The vegetable garden is starting to thrive – plenty of salad greens and arugula at the moment. Tomato plants are getting lovely and bushy – can’t wait for the first crop of those delicious homegrown baby tomatoes to go with […]
Next in the Best of Eleuthera series we take a look at the Leon Levy Preserve. No visit to the Governors Harbour area is complete with out a stop off at the Preserve – the first National Park in Eleuthera. Situated on the Banks Road heading south from Governors Harbour it is on the right just before you get to […]
I was so thrilled this last week to take part as a student in a yoga retreat here in Eleuthera. It was organized by Kalin Griffin of The Lighthouse Center – she lives in Governors Harbour and is developing a wonderful business and following her life’s path of holistic health. She teaches yoga herself as well as being a very […]
Some of you will know our house – Buena Vista – here in Governors Harbour Eleuthera. This is one of the oldest houses certainly in Governors Harbour if not on the island. We bought it when we moved here just over 10 years ago and it was in a very sorry state – almost too far gone – but just […]
The other week as a member of the Rotary Club of Eleuthera I gave a brief presentation during vocations month about being an interior designer – and what I talked about was making an inspiration board. There are many types of inspiration boards – just take a look at Pinterest – the on-line version of what I’m talking about […]
Next in the Best of Eleuthera series we take a look at the new restaurant – Pascal’s at Sky Beach. It just opened last Friday and soon as I heard we were off there for lunch today. The restaurant has been screened in – thankfully no more bugs ! and there is new decor as well. Sammy the barman is […]
If you are renting a house in Governors Harbour Eleuthera or nearby and want to have a dinner party – take note ! Bob and I decided to have a dinner party recently for 11 people – and whilst I love cooking myself- at the end of a busy working week I decided to ask 2 local ladies to do […]
Next in my series the Best of Eleuthera I am blogging about The Cove Resort just outside Gregory Town. This is a very stylish resort , designed and built under the watchful eye of Sidney Torres IV – he has done a fantastic job here. To make his vision a reality took a lot of blood sweat and tears and […]
Out of season – as we are in Eleuthera right now – is a time to enjoy the quiet of the island. Most restaurants are either closed or closing this week – there are still some visitors but nothing like the usual amount we see throughout the rest of the year. Instead we are cooking delicious fresh caught fish and […]
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 […]
