4th Trip but it's been awhile!
4th Trip but it's been awhile!
It's been three years since our last trip and we are hoping for any updates you all may offer.
Is there a current restaurant list going somewhere? I heard rumors from some friends that traveled earlier this year that the Smoothie Shack closed? That was always our mid-afternoon pick-me-up!
We planned this trip over the full moon in hopes of hiking Ram Head at night...has anyone done this or are we being silly?
Many thanks!

Re: 4th Trip but it's been awhile!
We've hiked Ram Head on the night of a full moon, and it was pretty impressive. In winter, if you set out an hour or so before sunset, you will get to watch the sun set over the water in the west as the full moon rises in the east. In that case, though, you don't get a high moon angle to light your way back. In summer, sunset is over Bordeaux Mountain, so you might head out later, but having light for the first half of the hike is pretty nice, plus it prepares you for the more challenging return in the dark. The full moon will be straight overhead at midnight, but that is probably too late to be realistic. In all cases, be sure everyone has their own flashlight, good footware, and ankles. Don't rush, watch your footings, and it will be awesome! Dine at Miss Lucy's before or after you head out.
All the best,

if you are staying over in coral bay (well even if you are not !) you should try the triple b brunch truck-- it parks at oasis on the weekends and mondays (and some other days too!) Indigo grill is good as well (where sputnik/donkey diner used to be )
woodies is supposed to be opening up some sort of outpost in the old island blues building .... but not sure of that schedule --

Re: 4th Trip but it's been awhile!
I almost had a heart attack when you said that the smoothie truck had closed
They were temporarily closed off and on awhile back due to nearby driveway construction, but then they relocated slightly at the end of 2015. I found reviews for them online that are less than a week old. Whew!

The smoothie truck is definitely open. I bought some smoothies last week
There does not seem to be anything happening with the new Woody's site in Coral Bay. I heard there was a septic issue causing delays.

It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.
