It was hot yesterday but there was a cool breeze on the porch where we ate lunch. We had a salad with nice fresh tomatoes, a deviled egg spread to eat on whole wheat crackers and perfectly ripened mangoes. Oh, and of course, our usual lunchtime rum and coke made with the local brand {One Barrel).
We rode the bicycles out to my property that morning and carried water for the newly planted coconuts and banana trees. Also checked on the progress of my latest sand delivery. Lookin' good! This should be all the sand I'll need for some time.
Stopped off at a friend's house to check on boat parts and got some good advice on how to solve some of the repair problems. In fact, the advice was so good that Les is hard at work and we are hopeful about being able to sail soon.
We are staying busy. Went to a neighborhood barbeque the other night, went out to dinner with Canadian friends (to the Sports Bar for Trivia Night.) We did not win but had a great time and some outstanding beer battered fish, and are going out tonight with Italian friends. We are going to try Don Corleone restaurant. I have lobster thawing in the refrigerator for tomorrow night! Ya'll come down and join us for an "All you can eat lobster night!
Kayaking planned for this afternoon. Wish you were here!
