March 13 – 15, 2011
I’m typing the entry here this morning as Kris, Gary and I ready to boat for the slow trip back up north. Carol left us in the very early hours of the morning for the airport, as she is flying back to Ohio on business matters.
Our first day here at the marina was cleaning day. Laundry, sweeping, vacuuming, scrubbing down the cockpit, decks, and dingy.
The second day we rented a car. First on our agenda was lunch with the Mounts. It was good to see them again before we part ways for a while. Then we ran a few arrands – groceries, air in the tiny air tank, etc – and just took a nice drive around the island. We were sad to see that Santana’s was not open, is it was a Monday. However, her mother was in, baking bread for the Exuma market. We bought a loaf of coconut bread from her that she had extra.
Now we’re readying the boat for a jump up north in the Exumas. I’ll talk to you all when we get internet once more.
We have Carol and we are not giving her back!!! We were a bit concerned when she landed in Ohio with flip flops and no coat on, but we put our sunglasses on to avoid the people staring at her.
I think she had no idea how sun tanned she was until I held my bony white wrist up to hers. The last I saw her she had her head in a bag of Lay’s potato chips. Just sayin’
Tammy, I love you comments. Please keep it up! 🙂
