Another picture perfect Monday is upon us the skies are filled with partially cloudy skies, the temperature a warm 85 degrees farenheit, the winds calm, only a light breeze, earlier we experiences some scattered showers, early in the day. The remainder of the day seems to be shaping up quite nicely, little chance of additional rain in sight. Another great day for the beach and the outdoors.
The St. Annes annual school Fair was held this past weekend in Rock Sound Eleuthera, a silent auction was a new feature at the fair this year. The fair is in aid of raising funds for the St. Annes catholic school. The school is seen by many Eleutherians and foreigners as the best private education place for young primary school aged children, the school is very well attended and supported by the community of Eleuthera.
