- It's the Islands

Well here we are at the beginning of May and we have plenty of rain.  Looking at the satellite that blob is covering nearly the entire Caribbean.  So it’s not just our island with the rain.  Thankfully we are not having the flooding that other islands are experiencing.  Be safe out there!  Looks like this weather pattern will continue on and off for the weekend.  But it is only a forecast.   I know our visitors are a little disappointed but we welcome all of this wet for the plants and the horses.  Of course that also means the weeds are growing like mad!  Spent 7 hours the other day weeding the garden and I am still not done.  But that is a result of too much time off the island traveling for a wedding and vacation!

A little note about the weather here…  If you don’t like what is happening where you are standing get in your car and drive to another location.  Frequently when it pours in Esperanza the Pueblo is dry.  Or vice versa.  We even stand in the front door of the restaurant some nights,  watch it pour rain in the bay and only receive a few drops on the street.  After all this is the Caribbean at the beginning of our wet season.  However there is one thing we can always promise.  The sun will come out.  The blue skies will return!  Another helpful hint… we sometimes we even call around the island to find out where it is raining and where it isn’t so we can plan a beach day. Just a tip!
