Sox - I love your comment about the life insurance! I upped my amount this year and that really takes a load off my mind when we spend a few bucks on our "experiences". Absolutely...There's nothing like a little piece of mind! That was also part of what I learned when I was 16...My Dad wa...

SJ - didn't know you were on island this week. Enjoy yourself man! Nice win for the Sox last night. That Yankee bullpen, at this point, has to be cause for concern for Yankee fans. And boy...How good is Daniel Bard? You don't see Jeter take too many defensive swings, but that weak ground out to Youk...

Re: Study: "experiences" better than "stuff&q

Interesting that the subject of this interview used a "vacation in the Caribbean" as an example of the notion that "experiences" bring us more joy over a longer period of time than buying "stuff." I think most of us on this forum will read this and totally agree! http:...

At 1:17 of the video, you see a bridge (well, the railing of the bridge). The river flows under that bridge, like I said, at about 20 feet wide. So you can see how it overflowed into the streets of the village. Crazy.

In the video, is that the Mystic river overflowing? It is a very rapid flow; I understand why there is damage. It is sad situation, and I am sorry for all the heartache for all of you facing cleanup and repairs from the rain. Yes Iprof, that is the head of the Mystic River. It moves pretty good thr...

Here's how it looked in our neck of the woods yesterday. I have never seen anything like this, and that includes the two hurricanes I have seen (Gloria and Bob). This street is just absolutely devastated today. The waters have receded for the most part, but it left behind bridges completely washed a...

Hey Jim - thanks for sharing that, I enjoyed watching them! In your 2008 STJ video, the first song you chose was perfect (OPH). I think I'm gonna take a stab at this with my pics next time.

You know, I have never been to Brown Bay. I think we'll have to go this time. And I did not know about the existence of chocolate-coconut-crack bars at the Deli Grotto either. I think I need one. Or two. Yeah, generally I'm good for one a day. They are really tough to stop eating! Nice trip report ...

Re: 10 days on the rock - part 1

Great report! Not sure the following is in line with Anthony's new rules, however.

Intuitively, I kept looking for "Connecticut". But they are nowhere to be found. Depressing.
