White Bull on the Highway

Celebrating mangoes, pineapples and poincianas in Eleuthera this week…. But first I wanted to let you know – if you don’t already know – that the Island Farm had a fire two weeks ago. The new building on the right as you walk in where all the freezers were containing meat, fish and all other frozen items was the one […]
Happy June to the readers of Kathy’s wonderful blog! It seems that summer is almost upon us which is hard to believe given the winter many of us had here in the Northeast U.S. In less than 3 weeks our summer camp program will begin at Emily G. Petty Primary School in Governors Harbour. If you are new to Kathy’s […]
Hello dear readers – seeing super clearly now after last week in the US. My second cataract operation went really well – and no virus this time thank goodness.  No reading glasses for even the tiniest print – and the whole world looks like it has been spring cleaned ! We stayed the first two nights down in Aventura which […]
Yes dear readers there has been plenty going on in Eleuthera this past week. Firstly there was a national election in the Bahamas – the current government was returned with a landslide victory. This is the first second term administration since 1997 in the Bahamas – and hopefully it will bring continuity which is much needed. A change of government […]
Hello dear readers – here we are meandering into May in Eleuthera. The weather has been very rainy – which is always welcome unless you are trying to get outside painting done ! But on we go and there are plenty of other jobs that the painters can get on with. We have also had some very long power outages […]
Yes dear readers – I am seeing you all clearly now after my first cataract surgery. The procedure went very well but unfortunately the next day I realized I was coming down with a bad cough and cold and razor blades in my throat ! Of course I had been told to rest well after the surgery but my body […]

Actually dear readers a bit of news here in Eleuthera this week. The election has been called for May 12th so there is plenty going on with the political scene. Who knows what the election will bring – but as always there will be some families divided because of their political stances . I always say – we all have […]
Goodness – here we are in April already – and Happy Easter for those of you who celebrate and a joyous Passover for those who celebrate that. The island seems very busy for the Easter Holiday – the queue at the Island Farm was huge on Tuesday – seemed like everybody wanted the cinnamon buns and sticky buns as well […]
This week I am thinking about appreciating the quiet rhythm of life here on island. In these troubled and turbulent times with so much hate and anger in the world it is important to be able to reflect on what is quiet and good in our lives. So if you are looking for what is happening on the island at […]
We are very happy to be back home in Eleuthera now …. The trip went well and we did have one gorgeous meal there which I will report on later in the blog. But Dorothy was right – there’s no place like home ! Poor Bob had a really tough time – after the surgery to remove the skin cancer […]
This week the Colmans are in the land of plenty – otherwise known as the US. We are staying – as usual in Fort Lauderdale in the Hyatt Centric on Las Olas Blvd. This is very central for most of what we need to do. It is a trip for check-ups and such like. We both had a treatment from […]
