The most recent, creative pot-luck feast...
and the gang that gathered to prepare and eat it!
We cooked and prepped sushi rice and fillings on our boats, then brought them up to the restaurant where we all got in the act of rolling nori rolls.
This happens every evening...
...and we all gather to blow conch horns and watch.
One day Peter & Suse flew their plane over from Georgetown with Paul & Melanie, and we did what we do best-- prepared food! Sue & Oscar hosted at their wonderful beach-side house.

The day we went "bush-wacking" was breezy & cool (perfect to avoid pesky noseums). Dressed in long pants, socks & shoes, we headed to an old settlement and plunged into the brush, following a rock wall up to groups of ruins. We found many broken gin bottles (over 100 yrs old), but non intact, also some shards of porcelain dishes. Most importantly, we found the only known sour orange tree, with a crop full of oranges which we shook down & gathered up!

A good fishing day on Independence! (and why the cats where there)
