January 30, 2013 Thursday

It is 16 degrees in Ames and we are enjoying a beautiful 85.  The weather is unbelievable here this year.  How can you improve upon perfect?!?  We snorkeled on the North side this afternoon in the clearest, calmest water I have ever seen.  I am so glad Brandon was here to enjoy it with us.  The water temps are in the 80s which is so comfortable.
 


This morning Brandon and Richard went deep sea fishing.  They caught three barracuda but no tuna or wahu or snappers.  I am not giving up on them, they will catch supper for us.  The day before, the three of us went out but just for a spin.  It is a nice boat.  We are renting it from a couple (Mike & Linda) who stay on the island also.  They are not here right now.







I have been enjoying our beautiful beach.  The guys did such a wonderful job on it.  There has been so much rain the past months that the trees are lush and green yet.  There are no leaves littering my sand.  The jasmine tree has tons of leaves yet and it is flowering.  This is a first for us to see.  Usually it is finished when we arrive. 






We have been jumping in the car to get places, which is great, but boy do I miss my bike!  I would have had a ton of exercise by now.  It is nice to have a vehicle, but.....  Tomorrow the bike will get used. 




The island hasn't changed at all since we were here last.  With all the rain, the inland water lakes are full.  That looks really neat.  They have not been that full for a few years. 


I tried to upload photos but they didn't work.  Darn.  I think I will get a new blog as this one now sucks!  Ever since they changed the format it is awful!!
