The Canadian fronts have brought high winds and cold temps, colder than in previous years. To put it in perspective, it got down to the high 50s one night and we turned on the heat just to take the chill off. However, it hasn't stopped everyone from finding things to do, and places to go.
Abaco Beach Resort, where we are staying, has gone all out this year by offering a variety of events and activities for our group of 68 boats. On Thursdays, we have Talent Night, and several of us have participated, singing along with Steven Colebrook, a very talented keyboardist. Elvis, Neil Diamond, Peggy Lee and other pseudo-celebrities have appeared. A highlight of these evenings is that the Resort staff has several very talented individuals, and yours truly has been asked to join them in some gospel tunes. As most of this is ad-lib, it's pretty good, and we are getting much better.
February is a busy month. We have the Annual Meeting for the yacht club and our Commodore's Ball. Several members have flown in for the weeks festivities and it is good to have them with us once again. Last night we had a Full Moon Party on the beach. It was a sell-out, the food was fantastic and the Bahamian music and tiki torches added to the ambiance.
Several other events are upcoming, including a Pirates Party, the flea market on Man O War, and the Barefoot Man concert on Guana Cay in March. So, despite the weather, things are improving and everyone is having a good time. Wish you were here with us.
