Friday 15th March

Today has been very hot and sunny and not so humid as previous days.


Ben caught a large sheepshead fish this morning. It is now in the fridge having been gutted but awaiting filleting.

We played golf today back at Heritage Harbour which we played two days ago. There was little opportunity at other courses. We were paired up with a couple of Canadian men who are spending 6 months here before returning to Canada for the summer. Their golf was mixed as was ours. I played slightly better than on Wednesday and Ben was not quite as good. It is a nice course with long distances between the holes with the buggy track wending its way between the houses at Heritage Harbour. We were given a free drink at the end of the round which was very welcome.

Liz on the tee It was a lot cooler today when we got up. It was sunny but there was quite a strong breeze.

The day gradually became warmer and by 4pm this afternoon the temperature was back up to the mid 70s.  We enjoyed the golf course. It was much tighter than other courses we played but interesting to play. Our partners today were from Michigan. We couldn't work out their relationship but Larry and Sandy seemed to play on the same course in Michigan. Larry apparently had major heart surgery 3 months ago and although his golf was disappointing for him, he managed to play 18 holes. Sandy was in a separate buggy with her friend Debbie who is recovering from having broken her ankle a year ago. She was still using a crutch and wasn't playing. Larry and Sandy's golf was mixed but they were slow. Ben spoke to the people who were playing behind us but they wer...

Our trusty 'RAV 4'  Steed The day started wet but it soon cleared and from 10am it has been a lovely sunny day. We had been told that the Roser church next door to us was having it's monthly breakfast so we decided to go and try it. The church has a very large footprint and was apparently set up as the first one on the island prior to any bridges being built. Because of this it elected to be non-denominational and welcomes people of any religion. The breakfast consisted of 2 pancakes, sausages, butter and syrup and we could have had biscuits and gravy as well! This afternoon Ben did some more fishing and I went for a walk on the beach. It consisted of beautiful white sand with a few people enjoying the sun and sea. I was out for about 2 hours and finally found my way back to the condo. Ben was reasonably successful with his fishing and added his catches to the next door neighbour's net to use as bait when he goes off fishing on his boat. This evening we were eating up t...
