Happy Friday! This is an oldie that I dug up. I was trying to delete some of the 1400 pics on my iPhone because I keep running out of memory and can't take any new pics lol. I saw this one and had to post it. Sapphire beach is beautiful so pics of it never gets old. Silvia is back in town to finalize some business that she left undone when she fled the island, like sell her car. So we plan on having some fun this weekend. Tonight is Hook Line, Fat Turtle, east end. Tomorrow is boating and water island, and Sunday is beach day. Fun times!!!!! :-)

Sailing and Limin in no particular order

We had the day off yesterday and sailed over to Jost with some friends on their boat. The weather was great and everyone had a good time.

Jay got another Saturday off...WooHoo! That makes three in a row. Lovin it. So we went for a sail with friends and ended up on Jost Van Dyke. Never gets old :-). So at the moment I'm chillin' in a hammock, listening to Kenny, enjoying a cold beverage while listening to the water softly caressing the white sand. Priceless :-)

Deb and I Made Threee

So our three year anniversary on Island was this week. As the locals say we made three. That's a number that is hard to even imagine. It does seem like time speeds up as we get older.The last three years have definitely been a whirlwind. We haven't been posting much as it seems like we have worked into a routine and don't do as much "tourist" stuff as we used to. Also work gets in the way of being beach bums most days. Don't feel to sorry for us though as we still manage to get out on the boat although we have not been diving in a while and my new fishing gear is still new, so that might have to be my New Year on the island resolution. Use my fishing gear and get a little diving in that doesn't include changing a prop, a shaft, strut or cutlass bearing, or drilling a hole in the bottom of a boat for a through hull fitting. By the way those are all things that I have done in the past three years with dive gear, not exactly what I had planned when I got certified to dive about ten years ago, but handy skills none the less.

On a side not a bunch of the "Red Necks in the Caribbean" are coming back for a visit starting the week after next. Last I heard there is going to be either 12 or 14 of them and Deb and I are taking a few days off to hang with them, should make for some interesting posts.

Tom Chapin at Tillet Gardens/Jack's

Wednesday night Deb and I went to an Art's Alive event at Tillet Gardens/Jack's Wings. It was Tom Chapin, Harry Chapin's brother. It was a last minute decision to go and turned out to be a nice evening. The music was good, and believe it or not the service from Jack's was to. The first set was more family friendly as there was a large group of school children there. Then the second set was more folk/rock and roll including a cover of Cat's and the Cradle. It's always impressive to see musicians that have played together for years. We sat about 20 feet from the stage. As an added bonus Sandy Chapin, Harry's widow, co writer of Cat's in The Cradle,  and a resident of St John was in the audience as well.
