A Little Break at Home

 We got home on Tuesday for a small break before hitting the road again.  This time of year is so beautiful on the island; temperature in the 70’s with clear days and lots of sun.  When we got home, our son, Jonathan, and his wife, Kahran, were already here for the week.  This might be their last excursion before their baby comes at the end of November.

Enjoying the porch.

When we get home, we always enjoy walking around the yard to see what has changed since we were home last.  Right in the driveway there had come up some kind of volunteer vine, we don’t know from where.  As we looked at it, we found that it had five melons on it, some kind of muskmelon or cantaloupe it seems.  Where did this come from?  No clue, but we will take it!

Melons in the driveway!

We also look for living things.  Right in the front yard was a very active land terrapin.  This one was not shy and we followed it until it crossed the road and disappeared into the bushes over on the other side.  There were also loads of little green frogs on our banana trees.  We love these little creatures since they live in mosquitos!  We leave them in charge as we leave again today.

Crossing the road.

They are EVERYWHERE!

It’s Coming!

 Spring is now really on its way! We just ate our first lettuce from our little salad garden.  Trish also had an early radish!  The lettuces...
