5/30 - 6/6.....Leah & Scott's trip

5/30 - Our daughter Leah & her boyfriend Scott flew into Marsh Harbor for their week in Abaco. We were still dealing with bad weather, but it faired for a great Sunday afternoon @ Nipper's & Grabbers. The crew of "Journey" (Annette, Barney, Trisha & Richard) joined us and a very big time was had by all!!

6/1 - Better weather and a great afternoon at Tahiti Beach. 6/2 - We had sunny skies and rented golf carts to check out the south end of Elbow Cay. We didn't miss any of the bars!

6/3 - Had a great time at Tilloo Bank - beautiful water, great snorkel.

6/4 - Tour of Hopetown and climbed to the top of the lighthouse

6/5 - Back to Marsh Harbor (flights out in the morning).

5/14 - 5/29.....Thunderstorms & WET !!!

5/14 - Arrived at Great Guana Cay and spent a few days - rented a golf cart for a tour of the island and spent some time at Grabber's & Nipper's (way too much time!)

5/18 - Headed into Marsh Harbor to pick up Steve & Rose Simmons (they flew in for their vacation and brought the rain with them). Spent several days on the mooring in Man-O-War since the weather was so bad. "Journey" came in and the excitement started. After he picked up his mooring he called to say he was taking on water (shaft & rudder had slid out of the shaft log). The next morning we get another radio call that he had been hit (a sailboat in front of him broke loose and had hit him) Fortunately it did not cause him to break loose and the damage was cosmetic. I forgot to mention both events happened during major storms.

5/22 - Still wet weather but we decided to relocate to Hopetown. Spent the next week between storms at Tahiti Beach and Marsh Harbor. Steve & Rose got a couple of visits to the beach but mostly had a wet vacation until they flew out on 5/27. The following days brought more of the same weather.
