A Lot of Nothing

And we’ve been busy at it.That’s what happens here at Compass Cay, you get caught up in the islandness of the place and you don’t do anything in particular, but a lot of things in general. In general we’ve been enjoying our island paradise and it’s inh…

Jour Pluvieux dans le Paradis

Wow… not bad for a old man from Arkansas.Rainy Days in Paradise is what we’ve been having. Can’t complain though and if I did no one would listen,It’s kinda nice anyway… Good excuse to watch a movie or two and not feel guilty about not getting out …

We’ve never pulled into Bimini before. For whatever reason we’ve always stopped at the next little island south, Cat Cay, if we didn’t want to pull an all-nighter or needed to wait for the stream to settle before crossing back to the states.Before pull…

Talk about an abrubt change of plans..

We realized that the winds were picking up and a night on the hook out on the bank was probably going to be uncomfortable… and it dawned on us, we really have no plans… so, we took a hard turn to starboard and are now at Bimini Bay Marina and Resor…
