It's been awhile since I wrote about what is happening on Abaco island. You have all been so patient! Many of you know my mother took ill with Glyoblastoma, a very fast moving brain cancer. She passed away on November 29. With the moral support of all our vacation home owners here on Abaco, I was able to spend the last three months of her life being there with her. It was a humbling experience

Where has the time gone! Lots of vacation home owners and visitors to Abaco are still here and we have had a very busy "social season" this year.The Pathfinder Scholarship fund's auction netted them $100,000. It was fun setting up Judy Saul-Novo's Treasure Chest theme and I bagged a wonderful new dining table. Very island chic! The Reef Ball was its usual rocking success. I love that event! In my

With the arrival of December also comes beautiful sunshine and cool weather. What a lovely combination. Also, with the beginning of December, comes the end of November AND the end of a safe hurricane season. The few weeks prior to December were busy ones. There was much to do and Abaco was very much alive and kickin'. From Marsh Harbour to Green Turtle Cay as well as on all the other Cays,
