Walking the Eastern Shore
Our little group of walkers will pick a course every morning for a 3-4mile hike. One of the routes takes us to the end of the Eastern Shore. Beautiful homes and vistas line both sides of the dirt road.

Pete's Pub - Little Harbour

15 miles or so to the South of Boat Harbor, a 2hr cruise on seaDee, is a beautiful, small, fully protected anchorage called Little Harbour. Founded by Randolph Johnston in the 1950s as a art colony, as well as, his home. His son Pete now runs the place, and next to the foundry where artists still work in bronze, is Pete's Pub. It's an open air bar, the main road runs right thru it, that serves a fine grouper sandwich and cold beer.
A path leads you over the hill behind the bar and out to the Atlantic.
My buddy Jim tries his hand at the ring game. Notice the bra hanging on the wooden support on the left. I've been to bars that will cut off your tie if wear one. Pete's, apparently has different rules.
The beach on the other side is a mix of sand and rock carved over time by the Atlantic.

Superbowl in the Bahamas
What a great game. Even more fun to have the Becces onboard for the game. A 3 mile walk in the morning, an afternoon at the pool, followed by burgers on the grill.

Rosalie and Denise (a guest on Wink and Wilma's boat) admire the sites along our walking route
Dressed in full battle gear, Mike watches the game from the lower helm.
The weather this week has been outstanding. The day after the superbowl, Wink and Wilma had me out on the reef snorkeling. Crystal clear water and warm sunny days with light winds. Now, if we could just pull a lobster out of a hole.
