Happy Thanksgiving!


Happy Thanksgiving to all of our friends and family from this beautiful island! 
We wish only the best for all of you. It's hard being away from the friends that we have always spent our holidays with. It's just hard being away from friends. We look forward to spending the day with Kristin and John and a whole heap of their family and friends. It should be a fun day. In the spirit of Thanksgivings past, I get to bring vegetables to the event! Nance and Karis know of my previous annual vegetable assignments.

Good News:
• Our cars arrived salty, but safely. It's wild to be on an island driving our own vehicles. No rental car!
• Sam has managed to scare most of the chickens to the outer parts of the property. When we arrived, chickens were roosting on the lanai.
• Sam loves the beach! He has been running, swimming, fetching, licking faces, and enjoying the experience just about every day!
• Steve and I are walking on the beach daily. 
• We're starting to explore places we haven't seen before. (More to come on that. More of that to do!)
• We saw our first famous person on the island. We saw Will Smith today. He is more handsome in person than he is on the screen. 
We are grateful to have all of you in our lives. We feel lucky to have the opportunity to be here and see what it is truly like to live on a tropical island. It is a great adventure for all of us. 

More from Carmel: Can you tell?
