The Joint at Cape Harbour

 
Hello everyone, Hope you all had a great weekend. I am going to mix it up a little this week. I have had several requests of things to do on the weekdays because not everyone has the weekends off.
 
You have heard me talk about Rum Runners at Cape Harbour before. Take your boat as if you were going to Rum Runners at Cape Harbour. You can dock your boat right there in front of Rum Runners. Walk across the parking lot between the two towers (Condominiums) and look to your left, you will see a really cool place called The Joint. The Joint has a really neat atmosphere you will enjoy. You can dine inside or sit outside and overlook the marina and all the boats.
 
Please go to their web site for more info. on The Joint and other places to go on the property.

We have brought in three types of tuna for your enjoyment. Come on in and see what Kevin and Bone come up with for the BATTLE PLATE! It is going to be delicious.

REGGAE FRIDAY NIGHT'S with the loveable J.P.H. and friends 6pm till 9pm. Take off those work clothes and kick off another great weekend here at The Joint
 
CLAMBAKE SUNDAY Live Acoustic Jam 5pm till 8pm w/ Derrick Trenholm. Special Seafood Menu available all day. $4 frozen Drinks and Cruzan Rum Buckets will help keep you cool while enjoying some beautiful sunshine.
 
I just have to set the mood here.
 
There is nothing like taking your boat with friends, Family or Clients on the River, on your way to where ever you destination may be. Watching the sunset and the Brilliant reddish, orange sky as the sun goes down. Dolphins coming up and swimming next to your boat, watch the Ospreys and Bald Eagles swoop down and catch fish, the beautiful Great Blue Herons and Great White Herons walking on the sand bars looking for food. Getting to your destination for a great time of dining, talking, dancing, spending time with your friends, family, clients, creating awesome memories. This is what it is all about. Personally one of my favorite parts of all these activities is the boat ride home at night. It is so quiet and peaceful. The stars are out and some times the moon is out. In our everyday rush, rush, rush lives, time almost stops as you are cruising on your boat at night. I know words cannot describe the feelings you will have that I am trying to explain, but if you have done this before you know exactly what I am talking about.
 
Make it a great week!!!
