One Year Later

September was a month of celebration. Since hitting the one year anniversary of Irma– with no serious weather in sight– the island breathed a heavy sigh of relief. (And all the three-month-old babies squealed in delight.)

Although the season is not near over, at least the predicted height of the season has peaked. We remain weary and prepared, but this year has been sweet to us so far. Rain has returned and St. Martin is no longer the burnt pancake that it was months ago. Thank you, Mother Nature.

And we continue to send sweet healing vibes back to earth and sea, hoping to appease any disrupt She has been feeling. Take a look at Hawaii and you'll see a similarity in landscape. We are also in active volcanic waters, staring down hurricane alley.

So in recognition of what the island has gone through, what she continues to go through, and the pressures of what's to come–now and always– here are some photos that show St. Martin in her best light. As if nothing here has ever been askew. No gales, no debris, no tourists, no mosquitoes... paradise.

Waiting to surprise Kristen and Stefan on their engagement and birthday.


 Duke leaving his own surprise. At least the dog can appreciate a good view (rainbow in the cloud).
