Taste of St. Croix
A little late but wanted to mention that through a certain friend I was invited to be a judge at this year's Taste of St. Croix at the Divi last week. Overall a well put together and well attended event, I hope it was a success as a fund raiser. We had a great time with our contingent from St. Thomas and St. John including chefs from The Stone Terrace, Chateau Bordeaux and other local restaurant owners and food and wine folks. Met a lot of people, managed to embarrass myself in front of the Lieutenant Governor, and saw some fool jump in the Divi pool naked in front of 800 people. It seems everyone made it to the casino after but I am not a gambler so I mostly watched the action and hopefully spread some good luck around while waiting at the bar for hours on end for a beer.

Sounds like a great time! I don't suppose you have any pictures of the event? I recall you are quite the photographer, having seen some of your rain/flood pictures earlier!
I hope the chef's have all their dishes fine tuned by the time we get there in JulY!

Just when I screwed up when he went to shake my hand - I shook the other guys hand first, I didn't recognize Vargrave. He doesn't look the same in person as he does on the sign on Mafolie Hill!
