We have been having a lot of work done on Colman Towers in Eleuthera. Finally – after nearly 17 years – we are replacing all the old windows at Buena Vista. All the same sizes and proportions but hurricane proof and gloriously new supplied by Anderson Windows ! We have never been able to have the windows open – they […]
Vacation homes
So this week I have ventured into the world of hybrid cars here in Eleuthera. I bought a secondhand hybrid car from the UK – because I wanted a right hand drive – and also because we had a good family connection to ensure a sensible and reliable buy. I actually bought the car at the end of October – […]
So here we are – we made it through the year – and we are wishing you all a Merry Christmas from Eleuthera. Only one more sleep – if you are reading this on Christmas Eve. I don’t know about you but my run-up to Christmas is always a mad rush – and this year we have 3 rental houses […]
Starting this week with news that Colman Towers here in Governors Harbour Eleuthera is on the market. As I told you all earlier we are making big changes in our lives and building a new house a little further down the hill towards French Leave Beach – so we have put Buena Vista – as it is really called – […]
Great news this week that we are opening up again in Eleuthera – curfew is extended until 10pm and no more weekend lockdowns. Inter island flights start again on Thursday or Friday this week – so life – which has been on hold a bit can start again. Of course we hope that people are still sensible – wearing masks […]
So this week it is Thanksgiving – let’s talk about Thanksgiving 2020 in Eleuthera. Many people will be scoffing at the idea of giving thanks this year – but because it has been such a difficult year it is actually even more important than ever to really give some thought to what we can be thankful for. Of course Thanksgiving […]
This week I am bringing you a heartening update on the Friends of the Library program which I wrote about a few weeks ago. Latest news is that 185 tablets have been purchased and delivered to students from Hatchet Bay down to Tarpum Bay. Altogether six primary schools and Central Eleuthera High School have all benefitted from this very successful […]
And the latest news here in Eleuthera is not what we really want to hear ….. On island we are now subject to a 6pm – 5am curfew from Monday to Friday with total lockdown over the weekends. Businesses can run as normal – unless you are a restaurant that serves alcohol. Restaurants can open from 7am – 6pm Monday […]
Well if you believe the title – the history of Buena Vista up to and including today – then you are more gullible than you look ! Well we do have plenty of the history and some educated guesses as well – so here we go ….. Bob and I bought Buena Vista – which as you know I laughingly […]
And so dear readers this week I bring you news of changes at Governors Estate as well as other news. Bob and I decided during lockdown earlier in the year that we both would like a less stressful life than we have been living. A taste of a more relaxed way of being – even if it was not from […]
