Time to escape the doom and gloom

The next couple weeks should be fun visiting a friend on his island. With tailing bonefish 3 minutes from the front porch.

“His island”? As in a privately owned island?

So many jokes available.. unfortunately very political so I'll refrain from writing them out! Very cool!! Need someone to carry your luggage and tie flies for you?

As I'm looking at rain and gusty wind out my window and flood warnings on the river gauges... a warm sandy beach is sure tempting.

"could do with 30 or 40 days in a place like that right about now."

Fixed your typo for you..

No kidding. 3 or 4 days just enough to unwind.

Your friend owns Turneffe? I'd say have a great trip, but how could you not?

When Craig first went out there over 40 years ago fresh out of med school all that was there was an old Mayan fishing camp. It's been quite a project for him and Karen. Getting the entire area protected from cruise ship/resort development is his lasting legacy. For years the Disney's of the world were chomping at the bit ready to turn it into every place else.

Awesome...I dove Turneffe in the mid '80's while staying on St George's caye...there were no buildings on it yet...

The world could use a few more Craigs.

Very nice. Wasn't able to book that this year as I had hoped. But still on my list for 'some day'...

 

[Yard Sale]

Does my heart good to see you going fishing Bill! Hope you have a blast. I'm going to head up your way and camp in the rain.
