Unbearable....

The last few days before you leave for St. John are the worst! So much work to do before I can go, when all I want to do is experience the anticipation of the good times to come. So, fellow forumites, help me out. What news? How is the seaweed doing (abated, I hope)? Has anyone else seen the sea wal...

LALALALALALALA.....I've got my fingers in my ears and my eyes squished shut, and I'm chanting to myself "no problemo, no problemo, no problemo". A rainy day in St. John is better than a cold and blustery day in Chicago!

Re: Reef Bay Hike questions?

I don't think Tevas would be protective enough. My sister managed to kick a large rock into her ankle, but she was wearing hiking boots. It's sometimes a steep downhill grade, and having a closed toe shoe helped me. I wore my swimsuit with shorts and a tank top, and I'm glad I did. The guys did this...

Re: Reef Bay Hike questions?

We hiked a little bit ahead of the group. That way, we had the petroglyphs to ourselves for a few minutes while the group caught up, as well as the benefit of the information from the guide once everyone else got there. Then, we got ahead of the group again and had the ruins and then the beach to ou...

Re: waxing on and on

Barb, you need a worker for your ice cream truck? I've got some amazing recipes and I'm not opposed to weighing 400 pounds. :lol:

Re: Airlines.....Spirit?????

I've flown Spirit to STT twice. We are carryon only types of travelers, and we don't care if we get to sit next to one another. It works for us - for now. At $350 ORD - STT, I just couldn't beat the price.

Re: 2014 VIOL Ornament Gift Swap
