Hello, I'm Kathy Colman and I write about Eleuthera and other things.
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 […]
Hello dear readers – yes we are in the land of plenty again. We came over in early July and visited our brilliant dermatologist at Z Roc in Ft Lauderdale and had a total of 7 biopsies between us – all of which it turned out needed treatment. Fortunately they were all at pretty early stages as skin cancers but […]
This week I am handing the blog over to Dr Claire Verden who has written a lovely review of this year’s camp……. Well, it seems summer has passed by and September has rolled around; where did those long, lazy days go? Not that lazy describes our summer! Lazy is not a word that anyone would use when talking about the […]
Yes dear readers – it is quieter and quieter here in Eleuthera. The only places open for eating out in Governors Harbour are 1648 – French Leave Resort , and Sunset Inn. So you had better check out what you have in your freezer and rustle something up yourself ! Bob and I went on a date night on Friday […]
