Earth Angels

..........on Harbour Island..........appearing at sunset........halos aglow.

Front row couch

How cool is it that our children are growing up thinking that it is normal to lie on your couch on the porch and watch junkanoo!? I so love where we live.

Redefining the home office

Off to see the Christmas lights

Our journey got off to a little rocky start............

Even on the side of the road, in the bush, boy child manages to find something shaped like a deadly weapon

But it was no match against baby sister

Waiting for the second ferry of the trip. Hurricane Irene gave this dock quite the tilt. Boy child thought it would be fun to bring his bike back here and ramp off it into the sea!

Almost there........

.....and there you have it - traditional and heartfelt.

Winter Ruffles

With the prevailing wind from the east on shore in winter, the sea puts on her ruffles, a multi tiered petticoat of sorts - soft and playful, lively, soulful......... Yemanja do Bahia.

Take you daughter to work day

Well, not officially but my youngest was sick and I was nanny-less so she came to work with me.

I set her up in the room closest to my office and made her very comfortable.

But what do I know? Apparently THIS is her idea of comfortable!

Holy mother of Tarantula plagues!

It was literally like they had rained down from the sky, although they were far from heavenly creatures! Big black hairy spiders littered my interval training route. It made me loose my burgeoning Buddha nature completely. My well timed short jogging intervals turned into terrified high speed sprints past the beady-eyed, high legged, hairy beasts. I was hyperventilating, my heart was pounding. I became completely irrational and at times disoriented............ What if they all came back to life and GOT me!!

But of course, we don't photograph the nightmares so instead I give you............a day at the beach :-)
