The street is one lane and an eclectic mix of beach houses among a community of people who have been here since the days of slavery... and their ancestors were themselves slaves. The house on the corner looks like the Adam's Family house of TV fame. The old black woman who lives there is a recluse, does not use electricity, does not show herself outside. Some of the other families have pit bulls chained outside, cars on blocks, houses in need of major repair. It's a fascinating mix of cultures and ethnicities.
The live oaks and hanging vines add a magical feeling.
Concrete floors painted blue. Cathedral ceilings painted yellow. Fire place. 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths. Very comfortable... Instead of a Christmas tree, we strung lights around the fish sculptures on the wall and the potted plant in the corner.
Sam and Lu have adjusted well.
The kitchen...
Screened in back porch...
and a pool out back...
where we spent Christmas day.
A great spot and we will be here until the end of February. Stop by and set a spell...
