Love Eleuthera! Let me count the ways!

Bahamian ingenuity!  Flat tire and no jack?  Hey...I got a fork lift!

One of our favorite stops going to and from the airport; LaFleurs  veggie market, always a bounty to behold, and he will chop the top off a coconut to give you a refreshing coconut milk drink. He said he is angry with Martha Stewart as when she was visiting the island, she stopped by his stand, she published a picture of him taken in the rain which was not too becoming to him.

T.J.'s...the happening place in Green Castle, whether you are stopping by for a Kalik, a rum or a game of dominoes in the back room, you will be greeted as if you are an old friend.

How did we choose Eleuthera?  We have this man to thank!  Glen Roy Smith, Chief of Operations at Davis Harbour Marina.  He became our friend when he was Harbormaster at Emerald Bay on Exuma, and we missed him so decided to come see him last year to see what his new gig was all about.  When we entered the marina we felt like we were in old Bahamas, but yet had all the amenities we could wish for in a marina.  I had a wish.....I wanted to take some cargo net home to MN for installation on Buckhorn Beach, our summer St Croix River hangout.  Glen Roy is somewhat like Santa Claus, he makes wishes come true.  He & Bob cut, pulled and dragged a huge piece off a nearby beach, we rinsed it, packed it in a box and shipped it home when we got to Florida.... end result; happy GrandGirls and friends as they "hung out" in the cargo net!
