The week after Jane leaves ……

The week after Jane leaves is always a hard one for me. But this time we had a holiday weekend. Friday was Randol Fawkes Labor Day and Monday was Whit Monday – so having a different routine was very helpful. Bob and I had a very restful long weekend and it was a great tonic. On Saturday I went as […]

And the rain finally came !

Hello dear readers – yes the rain finally came as June began. As some of you know – if you have been paying attention – we have had virtually no rain for months.

Yoga at the Levy Preserve and more ……

The yoga classes at the Levy Preserve are still going strong at the moment. Monique Carroll is a wonderful teacher – she makes the classes fun as well as effective. Of course people are leaving the island if they are winter residents so it will not be too many more weeks I think before the classes cease. The pavilion at […]
