Turkey Day goes Lobster Week

Thanksgiving is without a doubt my favorite holiday. To me, it is the most proper and wholesome holiday there is; a pure observance that truly celebrates the human spirit. When families are brought together around the table, banded together by thanks and appreciation, that is the true essence of the holiday. This year, I was fortunate enough to celebrate the harvest in the Bahamas with my family. It's becoming a tradition of sorts for us, to spend our week together in paradise in our family friend's house on "Briland" — a blissfully tiny island north of the mainland Eleuthera. We're very glad to have such a gracious friend to share his place with us.

When there, I did some testing with my new GoPro. Only a couple of short videos — my focus was on relaxing not filming — but here are some of the photos that turned out! Hope you enjoy...what a beautiful place. The simple island-life reminds me of how truly blessed I am.
