Our Verandah -



We have just returned back to Kingston after a month at our new Beach Cottage.

The verandah is so cool throughout the day, the missing item....a hammock or 'day bed' where one can relax, read and doze ...We ponder on the changes .....a larger verandah? hmmm...

Our Living Room -


Awaiting a jute rug and hope to change the mirror -
Our Living Room is so comfortable, we mostly listen to music on  IPod Bose system. Each member of the family have their own IPod .....most convenient ..Hence, our Flat Screen is hardly turned on for Cable but certainly enjoyed for movies.

Colour has always fascinated me. The psychology of colour -
We love Blue and White...particularly by the seaside.
it's so calming, peaceful and pure

"Blue is the only colour which maintains its own character in all its tones....it will always stay Blue;  whereas yellow is blackened in its shades and fades away when lightened; red when darkened becomes brown and diluted with white is no longer red, but another colour - pink." - Raoul Duffy, French Fauvist Painter, 1877-1953


Lots of Blessings and sunshine,

Sunset at Spanish Cove Cottage

We are at our Cottage in Runaway Bay, Jamaica in the bosom of our family!
Each day has been an amazing journey. We sit on our private white sand
beach enjoying the sunset. Some days more magnificent than others!

While sipping our cocktails we are mesmerized by the beauty of nature. Creation is so beautifully woven into the fabric of Life.

This property has amazing potential. As we are all together with our family we have spent
many hours exploring the different creative angles....It is so much fun. As a mother its fascinating listening to the different ideas of our three children and their companions.
It has truly been an insight into their soul.....

What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?
