Saturday, September 25, 2010. HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN". Is Beach House ready? Is Beach House clean? She's been gone too long. Where does all the stuff belong? The Admiral 's returning. Soon all will be fine. The Admiral 's returning. Gotta chill some white wine. Normalcy will soon reign. We'll be two again. It's been such a long while. You'll know by my smile. That the Admiral has returned. You'll know by my smile. That I'm second in command. You'll know by my smile. That Happy days are here again!

LIFE ON BEACH HOUSE: October 2011
http://lifeonbeachhouse.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 28, 2011. A HARD DAY'S NIGHT. Here’s the month-by-month, blow-by-blow description of how Beach House spent her summer vacation. Beach House had a little ‘dock-time’ at Jolly Harbour Marina in Antigua while her crew went to Toronto. After this picture was taken, we took down the enclosure, strapped the dinghy to the foredeck, and tripled up the dock lines. She was ready for a big blow, should it happen. The big blow didn’t happen. Thankfully. Hungry, hungry boat. Look at this - life jacket...

LIFE ON BEACH HOUSE: November 2012
http://lifeonbeachhouse.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 4, 2012. Last week a modest swell. Curled around the north end of Tyrrel Bay. And the surf was. Higher and louder than usual. Remnants of Hurricane Sandy. She never threatened the Eastern Caribbean,. But the storm was big enough to affect us here in a small way. We're back in Carriacou after a lovely summer in Canada. The Captain is another year older and I'm not. We're reacquainting ourselves with the slower pace of life here,. Of sunblock and bug spray. The cottage we rented last fall.

http://lifeonbeachhouse.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 31, 2010. The weather affects everyone, everywhere, every day. At the very least it can affect your mood. Care to choose between a wet, gloomy day and a bright, sunny one? A no-brainer. Be happy. Then there’s severe weather. When Mother Nature throws a hurricane our way, more than mood is affected - lives may be on the line. We’ve been watching Tomas, a confused and growing storm. Here’s the timeline for the last several days. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 29. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30.

LIFE ON BEACH HOUSE: ONE PARTICULAR HARBOUR
http://lifeonbeachhouse.blogspot.com/2012/05/one-particular-harbour.html
Monday, May 14, 2012. One Particular Harbour" lyrics by Jimmy Buffett). Over recent years, St. Vincent has gained a reputation. For being a ‘hot spot’, a place where crimes-against-cruisers. Had seemed to cluster. Was it all true? Was any of it as bad as it sounded? Although we knew such incidents were rare,. And theoretically can happen anywhere,. We’d avoided stopping on St.Vincent. So what was different? Three factors came into play. We’d been reading postings and articles written by cruisers. It woul...

LIFE ON BEACH HOUSE: June 2011
http://lifeonbeachhouse.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 7, 2011. Unlike volcanic Caribbean islands with their lush mountains and rainforests, Barbuda is formed of limestone. It’s flat and rocky, covered with scrub, sea grape, and the occasional group of palm trees. The description so far seems a little sketchy, doesn't it? On approach, from four miles out,. The island seems to appear out of nowhere. Most of the coastline of Barbuda is, quite simply,. Mile after mile of beach surrounded by acres of reef. Eleven miles. Unbelievable. From left to r...

LIFE ON BEACH HOUSE: March 2012
http://lifeonbeachhouse.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 24, 2012. Fill it with turquoise water,. Bright blue skies,. Green palm trees and a golden sun. Lovely colours tumbling around,. Reflecting smiles and laughs. In the mood for a couple of turns of our kaleidoscope? You’ll meet more of our cruising buddies,. Some good friends from Canada,. And a family member or two. And there just might be an island beach along the way. We left Carriacou in mid-January. On the way north, we ran into good cruising friends. And he likes to dance. There wasn&...

LIFE ON BEACH HOUSE: May 2011
http://lifeonbeachhouse.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 19, 2011. FLASHBACK - "DRIFT AWAY". Sure There are chores to be done no matter where you live,. But life on the water is slow, easy and social. Here’s how we spent some lazy afternoons last fall in Grenada. 8211; drifting away. Calivigny Island at the south end of Clarke’s Court Bay. And home to a very exclusive resort. The beach is lovely, but our gang of cruisers only needed. We'd bring our noodles and coolies and while away. An hour on many afternoons, drifting around together. Lisa and ...
