We arrrived here in Tryell Bay this gorgeous morning to find a vast, yet roomy, harbor ready to welcome us. Carriacou is a peaceful, pretty and revered island. What a wonderful way to ease into a country...island by tiny island. Businesses line the waterfront with only a narrow bumpy road seperating them from the sea. The shore used to be thickly covered with seagrape trees and the local manchineel tree. They removed them to allow the view of the sea. Not a bad thing with the manchineel because it's one of the most poisonous trees in the world...YEIKS! Unfortunately, hurricane Lenny barreled thru the bay destroying the unprotected shoreline and much of the road, turning several properties into waterfront real estate.

This is the first of the month, so we want to send birthday wishes to Mike Arnold, Pat Zumpfe, Tricia Krahling, Angela Blackburn and my honey and love of my life, Dudley. We miss you and wish you all a fabulous birthday, wishing we are there to help you celebrate!!!
