I've been here a month today! So...what have I been doing....
Let's see - been to Canoe several times - twice for the steel drums - nice.
Been to Half Moon for our Sunday family outings every Sunday I've been here. Last Sunday we took a bit of a hike/walk around the property and found a bounty of conch shells and urchin shells. Some neat scenery too.
Rented a motorcycle for five days around the hub's birthday - went to Blue Hole, South Coast for Pepper Shrimp, YS Falls (my first time there believe it or not!)
My friend came in for a week - can't quite remember what we did with him but on his birthday we went to Seastar. The new work on the place is really nice, much easier to move around. The show was good - my buddy danced with the dancers! Its a little spendy for me to do that every weekend and can lean towards the "touristy" side but it is a good time all in all.
LTU Pull Up Fridays has been a regular outing for us. Not too crazy about the music they play but the crowd is always fun - great people watching and its a good bet I'll see just about everyone I know there on any given Friday!
Last night was the first night of Hannukah. We cooked up a bunch of potato pancakes (latkes) - I made some "nice" string beans, calalloo, calalloo dip and homemade apples sauce. Had about 15 people over including our friend with her three year old twins and our 13 and 16 year old neighbors. Good time, good food - LOTS of leftovers (latkes for days and days and days)
This morning we are heading to the farmer's market and this evening to Jimmy Jackson's wake.
Meantime, I've read three books - almost done with my fourth. Have spent a bit of time getting early morning sun, gone in the sea from my house twice with my groovy swim belt and even logged in some laps in our pool in the yard. (Need to log a few more in before New Years)
So, that's my little up to date trip report. More to come!
