Baja St. Martin

The weather remains absolute beautiful over here in Lower St. Martin as it probably is elsewhere. My northern family reports lovely weather in Michigan, Tennessee and those in lower Florida also say it’s been nice. It is dry but that’s a small price to pay for the sun and 80 degree afternoon temps.

I do have to water my outside plants and the few vegetables I have planted. The grass is not growing rapidly which is kind of nice.

The Belle River boat landing is busy these days, I assume with fishermen hustling to get as much crawfish by Easter, after which the price traditionally drops. I have not seen big loads passing my house coming from the landing. When there are a lot of crawfish, the passing boats have big mounds of burlap covered sacks. Have only seen a few of those although I probably just miss most. I hear them passing going to the landing starting well before daylight. I’ve heard the price is $1.75 but that’s probably way gone by.
