Some Abacos pix from our cruise in 2006:

Beautiful. The "Old Man and the Sea" is especially nice. Was that a purchase, or
were you taking pictures in the shop?

It was in the shop/gallery at Pete's Pub, Little Harbor on Great Abaco
Island, quite an eclectic place with an interesting story.

The original Johnston family lived in a nearby cave for some time
while building their home, art studio and brass foundry.

Beautiful. I assume it's a gallery only, as I didn't see any prices.

Not necessarily, I've visited one in Sedona several years ago and
everything was for sale. The prices were astronomical - but you had to
ask. $18K for a small bronze piece we looked at, for example. I don't
know how they pay their rent. The cash register didn't ring once in the
30 minutes we were there but it may only take one sale per day to cover
the expenses!
