What are you supposed to do here???



This is my favorite street sign here in The Bahamas, only I am not sure what it means.  Not only do we have to drive on the wrong side of the road, we also have to figure these things out.  Here are a few of my guesses:


"No cussing zone"  

"Quiet Please"  

"Watch out for profanity zone"  

"Don't get excited zone"  

"Slow your butt down or you are going to drive into the ocean zone" 

I'd love to hear your interpretations in the comments- (PG please, this is a family blog)

We are official bloggers now!

One of our first "free days" on the island to explore. The beaches here are a reminder of Gods gift of beauty for us! 


Clifford, the big red truck made its first overwater journey to join us on this adventure. Man, I am a "babe" when I get behind the wheel of this truck! Seriously...So glad to have it!   Thanks Rick & Becky!




Grace has found her batting "sweet spot" on a team with mostly boys!  She is doing great!
Can someone please tell me what kind of meat this is? Nothing has a label!  Turkey, Goat, Pork?  And what about a price?    What is the price per pound for goat?




Gabe read all the Swedish Instructions as he put together my new chair!   Works great!  I love Ikea!


Grace made a new friend!  Petting the wild Manatee at the Marina where it has been hanging out for the past three weeks. 


Yes, that is Gabe, speaking at his first Monthly Youth Gathering. About 100 kids from two high schools come for games, food and message. They also meet in smaller groups during the week for bible studies. We take most of them home on school buses. Kids here do not have cars. They won't let me drive the school bus?




This is a picture of the College of Bahamas Group that meets once a month in Nassau for bible study and fellowship. 
Gabe and Grace at the St.Andrews Kirk, in Nassau. Gabe preached about corn mazes and growing tomatoes, and yes there was scripture in it!
I was supposed to be home schooling one student! not two!


We try to take some time on Sunday afternoons to explore. This is a monument honoring the landing of Christopher Columbus on Long Island in 1492.
