Choosing The Better Life. When a big-city lawyer ditches it all and moves to a tiny island in the Bahamas . . . Friday, March 30, 2012. One evening last week, we took the boat out for a couple hours. With daylight savings, our evenings are longer now and conducive to such weekday adventures! Off we went. We pulled away from the private dock and waved good-bye to Milo, one of my favorite island dogs. Milo, just chillin' out. You can see to the bottom! We cruised along the many little "cays" or blips of la...

Besides, the pigs really warrant their own post! So, the scoop . . . And in their excited quest for food, the pigs get quite aggressive. I've seen...

Choosing The Better Life. When a big-city lawyer ditches it all and moves to a tiny island in the Bahamas . . . Thursday, March 22, 2012. How Did You End Up On An Island? How did you end up living on an island? This question is posed to me on a near-weekly basis. The end result was a few decades in the making, so it defies any succinct answer, but I’ll give it a shot. Where Were You Before You Moved To The Island? Why Did You Quit Your Job? I started to slowly take the usual next steps associated with ca...

Choosing The Better Life. When a big-city lawyer ditches it all and moves to a tiny island in the Bahamas . . . Wednesday, August 29, 2012. Well, he's gone. Tropical Storm Isaac is long gone from our stretch of islands. Continued prayers and best wishes for those who remain in his battering path! Hankfully, it was a fairly uneventful storm for us, as these things go. But, even in my Better Life, hurricanes are the most dangerous for us here. Friday, August 24. With winds picking up already, I did the fin...
