Typical Day at Eagle Cove Haven
The best way may be to describe a 'one of a few typical days' when at our haven retreat. Wake up to birds singing and Chanoch already getting the espresso brewing. Having breakfast on the porch just off the living/dining area. Walking from the house to the Dagny Johnson Key Largo Hammock Botanical State Park. Coming back for lunch - big salad, (I love wooden bowls for salad), hummus and pita. Then its time for a kayak tour of the Everglades. After kayaking out in the bay, doing some fishing, exploring the mangroves, nothings better than jumping in the water off the dock for a short swim. Being able to see the bottom and my feet while in the water. Then a quick rinse of kayak gear and ourselves in the outside shower, playing with the plants - they grow so fast down here. Then inside to a two seat hot shower where I can sit down and relax, throwing a robe on and sitting in the bedroom's screen porch, to watch the sunset and sip some tea from a frosty mug. Chanoch is already out fishing off the dock, just to see 'who is visiting'. Walking outside and throwing some fish on the BBQ and listening to the crickets while we eat dinner. Light a few candles and be at peace.
