“When you’re a spy and you’re burned, you’ve got nowhere to go…”, so it is a good thing Michael Westen has friends like Fiona Glenanne and Sam Axe…though he might not feel that way. Welcome to Miami. Welcome to my favorite television show, Burn Notice. The combination of gorgeous tropical scenery, witty dialogue, more improvised gadgets than McGyver and the… Read More
virtual beach sand & sounds
In the inaugural www.bluwaterlife.com poll, the first question was “Where is your favorite blue water?” The majority response was “Any water viewed from a white sand beach under an umbrella with a drink in my hand.” OK….on a cold rainy day in January, I can go for that. Right now a trip to blue water is a long way off… Read More
tiki bar new year
The tiki bar is open! It’s a very rare blue moon full moon New Year’s Eve. This is a night calling for tiki style if there ever was one. I’m still hobbling around, so things take more effort and time – and patience has never been one of my virtues. Last bluwaterlife posting was a bit of tiki history. With… Read More

magic number
Ready, set, go. Past, present, future. Beginning, middle, end. Good, bad, ugly. Protons, neutrons, electrons. Win, place, show. I’ve always been partial to the number three. It just feels right…and it’s also one of my favorite Schoolhouse Rock songs 🙂 Three, oh, it’s the magic number, Yeah it is, it’s the magic number Somewhere in that ancient mystic trinity You get three… Read More
full moon party fun
There is a full moon outside tonight, and when I see a full moon I often think of the Fireball Full Moon Party at Trellis Bay, British Virgin Islands (latitude 18N 26′ 45.84″ longitude -64W 32′ 4.6″). There are a lot of full moon parties around the islands, some crazier than others. Trellis Bay is just for fun. A monthly celebration featuring local musicians, island barbecue, stilt… Read More
{real} fins up!
Fins up! These aren’t the margarita loving Parrothead fins. These are the Real McCoy from my shark dive experiences. Question: are you statistically more likely to be killed by 1) a lightning strike 2) a falling coconut hitting you in the head 3) a shark attack? In defense of sharks, they are the least of the problem. It’s scary lightning and… Read More
escape route
My route to the Conch Republic always goes over the Card Sound Bridge (latitude 25N 17′ 32.16″ longitude -80W 22′ 52.51″). I love the transition from the mainland into the Keys. It is the road less traveled, as most people just take US1 directly into Key Largo. It takes a few extra miles to cross Card Sound, but the extra… Read More
dolphin fun
Personality, intelligence, and a face anyone would love. Could this youngster be any cuter? These are a couple of the wild dolphins from the Roatan Institute for Marine Science (RIMS) at Anthony’s Key in Roatan, Honduras. Founded in 1989, the institute’s focus is the preservation of Roatan’s natural resources through education and research. Areas of study include tropical marine ecosystems,… Read More
