SWEET DREAMS MOODY BLUES

Z-Blog182MBbed

MOODY BLUES is closed up tight and tucked in nicely.    *  She’s above that star just behind the blue tarp at the bottom of the photo. (She sort of looks like a ketch, but she isn’t, she’s a sloop.)

It’s a lot of work to put a boat up on the hard. We love Spice Island Marine and the people who run it as well as all the personable workers. We stayed at Cool Runnings the pinkish long building (apartment complex) behind all the boats about 1/3rd in from the left side of the photo near the top of the photo.

When will we return to Grenada? Quien sabe? Who knows. What will getting home and checking things out bring? Again, quien sabe, who knows. All we know is that it will be great seeing our family and friends and moving back into our house.

We are especially eager to see the Oldwyn family. Jessica is doing fantastic in her brain surgery(s) recovery. Please keep praying for her that her MRI in August be “clean.” Her blog (www.jessicaoldwyn.blogspot.com) is so interesting and well written. She is honest, real and funny. It’s a good way to remember to count your blessings.

Future blog entries will be flashbackville of what I didn’t include but think should have. Thanks for all the support and encouragement in me keeping this blog alive.

MI CASA ES SU CASA?

If you’ve been following this blog you’ll know that we referred to our goddaughter Jessia Oldwyn’s blog:  (www.jessicaoldwyn.blogspot.com/). 

Jessica and her parents live in Wenatchee, WA, which is a few hour drive to Seattle. Prior to Jesse going into the hospital her friend Laura gave the Oldwyn’s the gift of her house in Seattle near the hospital to live in for as long as they want and needed. Laura must really be a wonderful human being to be so loving and generous. Thank you Laura from us too.

We’ve never been to Laura’s house so we’re wondering what Laura’s house looks like. Does it have any resemblance to any homes in Bequia, West Indies? We hear it’s “lovely and perfect,” not a “Bug House Culture Pot”!

I doubt Laura’s would be funky like this. (But what a view of Admiralty Bay!)

z-blog182-stairs4in.jpg                 z-blog182-parrot4in.jpg

Maybe Laura’s has many steps.                                      Maybe Laura has a Bequian parrot.

Z-Blog182-BoardUp

Maybe Laura has a boarded up crawl space.

Z-Blog182-Church

Maybe Laura’s is like a lovely open-doored church.

Z-Blog182-PurWaterLilly

I wonder if Laura’s has a purple water lily in a lilypad pond?

Z-Blog182-Window1

Perhaps Laura’s house has stone siding with boarded up basement windows.

Z-Blog182-SteepRd

Laura’s could be down a steep hill.

Z-Blog182-House3

And Laura’s could be painted white, pink and turquoise.

Z-Blog182-BitchinHse2

Ah, maybe Laura’s is on a gorgeous Caribbean Sea like bay.

Z-Blog182-Fence1

Does Laura’s have a bamboo fence?

Z-Blog182-ChickenWindow

Hey, I wonder if Laura’s CC&Rs allow her to have a rooster that crows at the break of dawn.

Z-Blog182-HiddenHse4in           Z-Blog182-LeafHse4in

Could Laura’s be low-bank beach front?                           Or hidden behind palm trees?

Z-Blog182-BitchinHse1

I’ll bet Laura’s is very modern.

Z-Blog182-Mango6in

How can Jessica not Go-Mango living at Laura’s?

NO INTERNET CONNECTION

Susea when she cannot get an internet connection.
