It’s that time of year. You know….the weather is turning cooler, the leaves are off the trees, and you start looking at vacation pictures from years past. Kevin has been listening to the new Kenny Chesney album incessantly, so that’s not helping much. I’m pretty sure we’re both about two clicks away from buying plane tickets to the islands. This is the hardest time of year to resist, since it’s been six months since we’ve been, and we still have six more to go.
Some of my best memories are on Guana, and I think it’s safe to say that it is my favorite place on earth (and I’ve been to some pretty cool places). I would happily trade just about anything for a week or two in paradise with my husband and our friends (sorry, Kev, that still doesn’t get you off the hook for Disney in February). I know just how fortunate we are that we have access to a house in the Bahamas on a tiny little island and friends and family to share it with.
So with sleet in the forcast, I’m determined to look forward to next May, when the island breeze is blowing, my husband is drinking rum and Tang (don’t ask), conch fritters are on the menu, and our friends are on the beach with us.
