I can't address why not to stay in Coral Bay again! It feels like coming home to your small space on a small island. Driving up Seagrape Hill at the end of the day, seeing the donkeys bedded down in the fire station at dusk, looking at the boats bobbing in the bay from the pool, nirvana for me! Love...

FG, the comment about "they're in a ship and we're in a canoe" was CF's attempt to say they are men and can come and go as they please while we are the support staff and must adhere to a different policy. I'm saying if it isn't written, who'll have a problem? Obviously, only CF!! The guys ...

I have tried to analyze the personality for six years. The CF has confided over the years that abused as a child, several marriages, physical abuse in 16 year marriage. I feel like I understand where the power play comes from but am always trying to have the non-confrontational approach when getting...

Does anyone have a "cruise director" in their office? Terry, our cruise director is affectionately known as "control freak!" We have a very flexible work envionment, everyone takes time out of their day to get a haircut, get their car serviced, go to the bank, meet a service pers...

Unfortunately, it seems this is what we must deal with in order to keep our jobs. I work with a personality that is controlling, wound tight as a gnat's a**! I have become very flexible (as in bending over backwards to accommodate in some instances) so we can make it work. I don't like the fact that...

Intersting replies! At the office, it's pouring the last of the pot of coffee into your cup and sitting it back on the burner, putting a new roll of paper towels beside the holder but not putting it on, putting your dirty coffee cups in the sink (which has a big sign above it saying, please put your...

So, you walk from your back office five feet from the copier, all the way to the front of the suite to my office to ask me to make you a copy? REALLY???? It boggles the mind. He's young, inexperienced and sweet. But he's growing a head the size of a watermelon. Sweet Baby Jesus, please, after 40 yea...

Thanks, much appreciated.

Has someone posted it recently? I have a crusing friend who arrives at STT soon and she wants to do the day trip to STJ. Thanks!

Happy, happy birthday, dear Pia! I have enjoyed your building blog immensely. Your Les is quite the handy man, his skills are pretty awesome! I promise when I come back I'll stop by your booth and say hi, instead of walking by and smiling at you! Hope your day was excellent!

OK, a sis-in-law could be jealous...not only are they going for 2 weeks in June, but they are now cruising Bahamas, St Croix and STT...they will soon be scooting to Red Hook and STJ for the day. Good lord, family...you are having too much fun!!!

Welcome back, Ms. FG! I have totally enjoyed reading about your move and all of the fabulous finds for your new digs (which are pretty amazing!) Especially adore the coral prints and your new painted pieces. Hope you find your return to the forum to be a fun catch-up, albeit long overdue!

I'm thinking I could look fabulous in some false lashes behind my snorkel mask! I'm heading to Pine Peace to get me sum!! Oh, a huge segway.....thinking of the hungover part, Cruz Bay 8:00 a.m., young girl comes out of Capt. Corner with two Caribs and a huge Snickers bar. By the time she gets to the...

Augie, as always, your pics are beautiful! Where in the heck is Hans Lolick? Somewhere beyound Lovango heading to ??? Gorgeous little island!

Ruth, love Augie's pic of you and your baby. To own a dog is giving your heart away....your face/smile says it all!!!

We have reserved with Rachel for the past seven years because we love her. She puts us on island time as soon as we get into her beautiful car. We are always at least six people and it is such a chill ride to Red Hook. She is sweet, fun and talkative and makes us feel like family (as I'm sure is the...
