At Home in Water World, Eleuthera


The Island School, Eleuthera, Bahamas 🇧🇸 

Yes, we’ve swallowed the anchor, so to speak, albeit temporarily. Tiny Bubbles II is on the hard in Virginia and we have settled smoothly into gainful employment here at The Island School. We discovered this island paradise on our sail through The Bahamas in 2018. It’s a match made in heaven for this crew!


Welcome to Water World!

A Wicked Fast School Bus Conversion

Image
With our boat sold, and a bus procured from the local district in Maine, it was time to head south. But you can’t just travel legally far and wide in a yellow school bus, and painting outside in November’s freezing temperatures is foolish. So, we burned south, as the authorities turned a blind eye, until the butter melted in South Carolina. In a Lowes parking lot, roller in hand, Base Camp received her new sea-mist-green-you-said-you-wanted-to-be-stealth-but-you-FAILED color. After the 100th, “Oh isn’t that a cute bus,” comment, our youngest son said, “We mind as well have painted babies all over it…!”  We named our beauty Base Camp, and we fondly describe her as our mullet bus.  She’s “business” in the front, with three standard school bus seats still in place. And she’s a “party” in the back— not that a triple bunk bed, a double loft bed, and an enclosed bathroom compartment, containing a cassette potty in any way constitute a “party…” There is however a foldout galley on the side wh

4th Time for the True Charm - Mexico

Image
Well we didn’t actually drive all the way back to Maine to re-register BaseCamp as an RV, like the Mexican border agent demanded — or did we? Well there was the additional detail of Maine summer employment, so we had ourselves a 2 birds/one stone journey north.   Here we were in January 2023 — one year later— back at the Mexican Border town of Piedras Negras, after a 6000 mile detour to clear up paperwork and earn some dollars.  New RV class registration in hand I climbed the steps to the Banjercito office to get our TIP (temporary import permit). I was pleasantly surprised to see no line, but my confidence wavered when I recognized the woman at the counter. It was the same mujer that sent us packing last round. “Never mind last time,” I thought as I handed her my paperwork, “we’re good now.” There was a long uneasy silence as she analyzed the registration. She looked up at me — Did she recognize me, the dejected bus guy? She spoke, “Voy a necesitar ver su vehículo.” Things were beginn

FROM WHENCE THEY CAME!

There were a lot of requests for a Cliff Island summer, followed by requests for a Cliff Island fall — complete with apple season, birthdays, Halloween, deer season, and more time with our Cliff Island family. Heidi and I needed this as much as the boys, so it was an easy, “Yes, Yes, YES!”
