Celebrations in Guanaja!

Hi to all our family and friends!   Once again it's been awhile since our last post.  So very sorry.
We have been extremely busy; no lie.   Martha and her guests occupied the island all of March thru the end of April.  Jeff and Cindee Jobe were on the island the full two months and aside from them we had a consistent rotation of guests who became our wonderful new friends.  I used to kid Jeff that I would get so much rest when he left but the truth of the matter is; I miss both the Jobe's dearly.   They are awesome people.  

We finally had guests of our own.  My dear friend, Stephanie and her husband Bracy flew down to visit for 10 days.  I was so sad to see them go.  We had a great time with them.  

We took them out snorkeling a few times
We had intentions of more excursions
but porch swings, naps and relaxation got in the way.

They enjoyed the slow lazy pace of this island.



Bob and Bracy had never met before but you would have never known that.
We played lots of Spades while they were here
(of course Boys against the Girls) and they were
a great team. 

Pretty evenly matched in pool.

We introduced them to all our friends at Manati's.

Stephanie and Cathy


The gals of Guanaja

Geri, Capt Al and Mercedes

How can a Texas Girl not know how to Two Step?
Bracy loves to dance and Stephanie was a rocker chick when we
were growing up.   She's more tolerant of country music now.
We took them to Graham's Place and got them on the dance floor.




yeah...no broken toes.


It was very sad to see them leave.  But I'm
pretty sure they will be back.  They seem to enjoy
their time here on this beautiful island.



So what's to celebrate?  Definitely not the departure of our friends.


Jim and Cindy have sold their beautiful home.
Yes, this is sad news for all of us.  But, excellent news for them.
Jim is the gentleman that welcomed us to their home when we
arrived on this island.   Cindy has had her bouts with cancer and
lives in Florida.  They had hoped that she would be able to return to the
island but with all the doctors visits and necessary medications - they
needed to relocate back to the states.   Cindy made the journey down to
close on their home.  It was absolutely wonderful to see her again.
And I might add she looks wonderful.

The real estate business they have created here is still in full swing. All current listings are still being promoted, new listings will be forthcoming & showings are still occurring. Clients & customers can still rely on the outstanding service that Jim & Cindy have always provided. Prior to their move, they invited Bonnie & I to join their business & we are honored that they have selected us to provide as much assistance as is needed here to keep the company fully functioning. They will still be 100% involved in the daily operations via the Internet & telephone & will also be making return trips here to Guanaja as necessary.

The new proud home owners of Jim and Cindy's place.
They will be our new neighbors when ever we move over to
our side of the island.
Welcome to Guanaja!


As you can see we are living it up here on the island.


Cheers!
Bonnie and Bob
