Horse Pals

My vehicle was not working for three days this week and I was limited to stay in the office during my lunch hour. On Thursday, I had my husband's vehicle (he was able to get my jeep repaired but used it to ensure that everything was working good.)

On that day I want for a little drive during my lunch hour. It is really refreshing to get out of the office for a while.
I drove to Sea Cows Bay,


purchase something to eat and a lottery ticket (hope I win). On my way back, I notice a horse grazing. I drove by and I said to myself, you are now back in to photography, you should not pass up opportunities like this. I must remember to keep my eyes 'open' to capture great opportunities.

So I turned around and drove to the location where I saw the horse. As I was taking the pictures (which came out pretty good) I noticed another horse that was across the road and he/she was looking in my direction. Apparently he/she and the one that I was taking pictures of, are pals.

So after I was finished taking pictures of horse no. 1, I drove closer to the other horse and took a variety of pictures of him/her.

We all have to be so careful of taking things for granted.

Men Hard At Work!

This evening, my husband and his friends (one of who is a mechanic) were outside of our house doing some chores. The mechanic was working for my vehicle. It was not working for three days and we have been trying to get the part every where. Eventually we finally got the part and now my jeep is repaired!!!! Yeh!!!

While the mechanic was working on my vehicle, my husband was washing his vehicle.

Something seems to be wrong with my camera. since last weekend, I notice that there is a sort of smudge on the bottom right of my pictures. I may really have to get a new camera soon.

Now back to my story. The gentleman below recently got this boat and started doing some repairs. These guys love to go fishing so I guess they saw it feasible to invest in a boat. But do you see the size of that boat??? It could get lost in the deep sea!!!! I definitely would not get into a boat that small. I am too much of a coward!!

Safari Bus



In the BVI, these buses are called Safari. They are mostly used to take tourist on tours around the island. Most bus owners take pride in having their vehicles beautifully painted.

In the St. Thomas, USVI, these buses are called 'dollar taxis'. They are a cheap way of getting from one point to another. They are actually quite fun.
