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 […]

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 […]
Pineapples, pizza and pouring rain – this last week we have had all three here in Eleuthera. The pineapple season is in full swing here in the Bahamas and some of the very best ones come from Gregory Town. We were gifted another 3 beauties from Philip Farm up in Gregory Town and whilst we are enjoying them I decided […]
Not a lot of exciting news this week so a few snippets including the cat who likes to walk with the dog ! Firstly though congratulations to Kris and Alishia Johnson on the birth of their first son – August. So this means that dear Michele Johnson of the Buccaneer is now a very proud grandmother. It is always lovely […]
News this week that Bacchus Fine Foods pizza night started on Wednesday evening and also news that there will be a coffee morning at Haynes Library on the third Tuesday of every month. Donna Allen , a winter resident here , is organizing it, so for all the many people who have missed it over the last few years – […]
This week’s blog finds us in that sweet spot between Christmas and New Year – that no mans land that I enjoy a great deal….. We had a lovely day on Christmas Day – I spent it preparing and cooking a big dinner which we shared with good friends. The pictures will tell the story best I think…. But the […]
So last week we completed on the sale of our lovely home heralding the end of the Buena Vista Years. We bought the house in July 2004 and have had a very happy time there. I have written before about how I feel that the spirit of the house has a female essence for me. I am not saying that […]
This week is a week to be thankful for all the good things around us here in Eleuthera. Big Dog as he was known in the US – the fire truck – is here actually in Eleuthera now – the shipping went seamlessly and we are all so very happy to see it here. It is going to be called […]
And just like that – here we are – it’s 2022. We hope that you had an enjoyable break over the holidays – we certainly did. Not doing anything special at all but enjoying a little down time and just being at home. Eating way too many chocolates on occasion and watching some good programs – as well as some […]
Yes – news at the end of last week that the government has called an election early – it will be on September 16th. I am assuming that the lead up time is short in an effort try to help with the Covid situation. Large rallies across the Bahamas will do nothing to help ease the rampant Covid cases here. […]
