Two times the fun!
The annual Carriacou Hash has come and gone and as we did last last year, we had a great time. We completed two runs while we were here on the island. The first of the two took us to the highest point on the island, named appropriately High North. This peak stands at 291 meters, just a single meter higher than Chapeau Carre, the hill that we climbed the last time we visited this island.

Can I keep him, Rebecca?

No, not us. Our friends Wade and Maureen enjoying the Carriacou sunset.
Even though we left at cruiser’s midnight, the Friday night party
continued on until the wee hours of the morning.
I actually forgot to take our camera along on Saturday’s hash.
Fortunately our friend Johanna did not forget!
The second hash took place at 9:00 AM on Sunday morning. After the large party on Saturday evening, we were not at all surprised to see only a small fraction of the hashers on site for this one. Those who were too tired or hungover to join us did unfortunately miss an awesome trail. Unlike most of the hashes that we do in Grenada where we follow a “dead” trail, set some hours before the event, this was a “live” hash where the hares, those who set the trail, were given a small head start and then were chased by the rest of us runners. It was a super fun event and our friends Grandad and Doggy Style did a fantastic job setting the trail.
With the vast majority of the hashers having left the island yesterday to return to Grenada, Carriacou has returned to its normally peaceful state. Until next time.

Our friends all abandoned us yesterday and went to Sandy Island.
We could still keep our eyes on them though.
That is one CUTE dog! MUCH better than any cat you’ll ever have!!!
So cute that I’m pretty sure the owners would not have parted with it.
Hi guys…
I dropped in a comment last month, that didn’t have anything to do with the post on hand, as does this one! I’m still playing catch up with your blog, which I read most every day. The progression is slow due to the fantastic content you include with each post… it keeps my mind in the clouds which gets me on a plane just slightly below “dream world”.
As to the reason for this post, I just finished January( of this year) where you asked for the lurkers to come forward…. I think I’m more of a stalker than a lurker, just trying to catch up! I just thought I’d let you know, I think I may be one, of many, of those people caught up in this fantastic story, who one day will come out of the closet ( I just wanted to be first). Keep up the great work… And I’ll keep trying to catch up! My theory ” How do I know where you are, if I don’t know where you’ve been. Hear where I’m coming from”
Be safe and happy..
Yours in sailing
Dan
Hi Dan
Thanks for “stalking.” 🙂
I do know how much time it takes to go through this entire blog. I just recently did it myself and it seemed to take me forever!
