Each episode of Rare Air encapsulates some moment where I was completely immersed in recording another of Mother Nature’s sacred revelations. Sublime visions such as these – and others exponentially more spectacular – play out constantly on this extraordinary planet of ours. Leaning in offers me yet another opportunity to appreciate the past, and hope for what might come in the future if all goes well.
Prior to visiting Saint John for the very first time in 2016, Beth downloaded a guidebook to her Kindle. Entitled “St. John Feet, Fins and Four-Wheel Drive,” I still remember hearing her read author Pam Gaffin’s description of Waterlemon Cay aloud, and instantly adding it to our growing list of must-do excursions.
This recording from our 2019 trip documented our second visit to the spot, and since then, we’ve been back once more. There is a lovely scenic hike to and from, and under the surface, we have followed Ms. Gaffin’s instructions and circumnavigated the cay counterclockwise on every visit.
What makes it so special? Everything.
Please stop back soon for more Rare Air.
