Coping with cheating death but losing her family by Dr. Joan Wright-Good The East End village of McLeans Town is on the opposite site of Grand Bahama, it is a popular jumping-off point for fishing in the shallow waters. Established in 1972, this beautiful island town is the farthest settlement in the East that can be reached by road, and consists of two roughly parallel roads. The North road boasts a couple of bars; the South road borders Carrion Crow Harbor. All in all, a beautiful piece of paradise. On September 1, 2019, this East End Grand Bahama paradise, was eradicated by Hurricane Dorian. Many today refer to Dorian as a Category 6, for those of you are not familiar with storms, this is considered a hurricane on steroids. With wind gusts of over 200mph and storm surge of 23 feet, McLeans Town was under its siege for nearly 48 hours.
