April 17 Warderick Wells

We are spending the weekend at Warderick Wells. Ken is touching up some woodwork on the louvered cabinet doors he made for us, using wood clamps and gorilla glue that he toted down to the Bahamas.










It's not all work for him, though. Although the weather has been up and down with high winds and cold fronts, today was a spetacularly beautiful day and we spent it exploring Warderick Wells by land and sea. In the morning, we hiked up to Boo Boo Hill. We did not hear or see any of the resident ghosts but with the high winds and seas, the blow holes were very active. If you stood over them, they blew your hat off. At the top of the hill is a pile of signed and dedicated driftwood, left by cruisers who have passed through this beautiful park.










































We snorkeled in the afternoon. It was very cold...a veritable ice bath to me. I have to wonder if my snorkeling days are over in this cold water. We were amazed at the size of snappers.

More exploration tomorrow...

Sorry to hear about the cold water and snorkel suffering. It's way too pretty in the photos for you to be feeling any pain!

Ken looks excited to be able to fix things. (if i was there i would brake something just for him)

Miss you all. xo pirate skip

Awesome work, Ken!

Can I send you a wetsuit, Angela?? That water and wildlife is too awesome to miss any adventures!

It looks like the great times are continuing. Sorry, I've been working way too hard to visit lately. I do take my mini vacations to the pictures from my visit.

Enjoy the fun and sun!!!

Oh yeah - Ken looks like he is working wayyyy too much. Ha ha.

You guys have a fun time. Even a cold day snorkeling is better than a hot day in Nebraska.

Love,

Sue and Dan
