Another Blogging Break Due To Hurricane Igor

IMGP5135 I’ll be taking another blogging break…this time because a large category 2 hurricane is due to hit our island this weekend with tropical storm force winds forecasted to begin later tonight. Because it’s a slow moving storm, the local weather service is predicting about 30 hours of storm force winds…it’ll be Monday afternoon before the weather begins to settle down again.

The last time a major hurricane came to Bermuda, we were left without power for about 3 weeks. Of course, I’m hoping that we don’t have to wait nearly as long this time around but we’re trying to prepare to go a while without electricity anyway.

Please keep my family and I in your prayers. We appreciate every one of them! If you want to read more about how my family and I have been preparing for the storm, please visit my other blog here.

Hope you all have a blessed week!

Spotted Eagle Rays

Several weeks ago we had a wonderful surprise when we visited the pier a few minutes away from our cottage –two beautiful eagle rays were peacefully gliding through the water! They were so majestic –yet they looked graceful at the same time. Truly a beautiful sight! 

I’m so glad Mom reminded me to bring my camera with us on our little walk and I was able to take photos of these beautiful creatures!
