Lobster tail

How beautiful is a lobster tail looked at closely after a day of fishing and lobsterring? I love my zoom lens!

Treasure from the sea

To find a Conch like this is a find! I wish I could tell you that I threw it back but…..

Shell Island

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
One of my most favorite places in the world is a deserted island in the Abacos called shell island. I don’t think that is its real name but that is what I call it.  It is covered with shells and depending on the weather, the tides, and the other people who have come to it, you can find real treasures.

Only two?

If you haven’t been to Nippers then you are missing something sooo fun. Have a nipper drink for me but know ahead of time after two you are you on your own!

Island manicures

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
My daughter has become the new manicurist of our trip. Here is the orange example but I highly recommend the red with white dots…it makes you look like you have strawberries on your hands. Summer is for not taking yourself too seriously!

Bird food

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
At my house down here I have found that a half of an orange will bring in the birds. I haven’t tried this back home but I’d bet it would work. Pretty,though, no matter what.

Unexpected beauty

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Who needs the red,red rose?

A storm is a brewin’

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We went to lunch at Pete’s and a storm blew up.  There was a chorus of “should I stay or should I go now…” We shot the gap and all was well.

Pete is a sculpter here in the Bahamas. He built his gallery in 1992 right on the beach and it’s only steps away from the best fish burgers. His family settled Little Harbour in 1951. His two sons, Greg and Tyler, are now 3rd generation sculptors.  Here’s a little competition for fish in the sky
