Hell

There's a little place out back of town here called Hell and here's a little about it.

I'd never been there until Mike came this time

I have not seen another place like this on the Island

The chickens even visit :o)  (Where don't they visit in Cayman!)

Look who was there

There was a neat lizard there

These formations . . . . .

are very interesting!

There's a bar next to where we were.  Not sure what the police were doing there!

Do you see the nest in the rock?  There's a red bird in it!

There's the lizard again.  If there's a pretty lizard, this one was!

Very interesting these formations are!

Rum Point

We went up to the other end of the Island . . . . .

to enjoy some time . . . . .

at beautiful Rum Point!!

The Blow Holes

So pretty!

Lunch at Burger~King~By~the~Sea

While we were out jaunting around the Island

we stopped at Burger~King~By~the~Sea for a quick lunch!

(I had my hand up by my face as I still had a bandage on it from the surgery)

August's Company

I've had a lot of trouble posting on here, so I sort of gave up!  Just the other day I tried again and it's finally letting me do it!  YIPPEE!!!  But for some reason it is really, really slow.  I'm so far behind I don't know if I'll ever catch up :o)  After I finished posting our pictures from our trip to the States this summer, so many other things were happening and then it was Christmas time.  So, I'm going to try to start off from back in August as for time to time I like to look back at my blog for memories sake.  Something's I won't have the date for :o(

The day after we got back to Cayman at the beginning of August after visiting up in the States for several weeks my oldest nephew, Michael, flew down to see us.    

 It was right after a storm had gone through several hundred miles south of us and the Sea was pretty rough!  If you click on the picture to enlarge it you may see how the Sea tore up the dock as there are some slats missing in it.

 We were up by the Sea across from the Turtle Farm here.  In the parking lot were lots of white rental vehicles.  It was funny!

Here an older Caymanian man was fishing.  See the red fish?  It was a Snapper.

We spent some much time down by the Sea.

There were some guys out there on the rough Sea's riding a Jet Ski!  And no, I didn't go on it!!

The only time the Sea crashes on the coast like this is from a storm!

Finally, the Jet Ski upset and threw him into the Sea

Standing up riding!!  They were crazy!!!

 

I Love, Love, Love This Song!!

We've been singing this song in Church on Sunday mornings and I love the words!!  It is beautiful!!

Happy New Year ~ 2013

  Can it be that we are starting another year???  It just doesn't seem possible!!  Yesterday, Dennis went to town for business and I asked him to stop at the grocery store to get a piece of pork and some sauerkraut for our traditional New Years Day dinner.  When he came home, he had got some extra meat and sauerkraut so we could have it for New Years Eve dinner and also today :o)  After enjoying a delicious late dinner we relaxed for a little while and at 10:30 we had a service at our Church which we had a really good turnout with a lot of visitors!!  We were very impressed.  Afterwards there were fireworks down at the West Bay dock and they were really good.  They had some new ones this year that shot up in the air, come down in the water and then light up and flash.  Pretty awesome!  We talked to quite a few friends while there and so we didn't get home probably until between 1 and 1:30.  I didn't go to bed until 3:00 am or a little later.

Pork, sauerkraut and mashed potatoes

Yummy!!

I made Chocolate Creme Brulee'

Another Yummy :o)

When I got up this morning, this is what I did ~

Made Dennis another Butterscotch Pie . . . . .

A Pumpkin Roll . . . . .

And last but not least a Pumpkin Custard!!

Yes, it's so much fun this time of the year eating all this delicious, rich, fattening food, but there comes a time when you have to take off that extra weight you've put on from the holidays:o)  Yes, that's our plans come January 14th.  We'll see!  I'm surely not looking forward to dieting again!!

 And yesterday I had a phone call from a young man asking me if I could wrap a gift for him.  This was the second time because he doesn't do such a good job he said :o)  My wrapping paper was put away, but I got it out again!

 How did you spend your New Years Day?
