Skipper's Cottage, Governor's Harbour, Eleuthera, Bahamas.
- 
I give regular recitals here at Skipper's Cottage and I play classical guitar at "Cocodimama" Italian restaurant as the sun sets into the Carribean sea every Friday evening. I have recorded three Music CDs , a mixture of classical guitar and popular songs.You can see more of my music and my musical friends here.

"Skipper's cottage", left, photographed in early 2003, has a footprint of approximately three hundred and sixty square feet, but the addition of the front deck and back porch has created almost a thousand square feet of living space. The cottage is small, but with open 14 foot ceiling, lots of windows, white walls and the terra cotta tile floor, it's surprisingly spacious. We have a music room, library, main salon, communications centre, galley kitchen, three piece bath, private bedroom and screened in rear porch.
