We just returned from Unicorn and it is fabulous. The new owners have spared no expense on the renovations. One bedroom has a king sized bed, the other 2 are queens. Each has a full bath. Although different, each has its own kind of charm. I don't think any of them would disappoint. The pool area do...

We met Kenny Chesney at Joe's Rum Hut last week. No one seemed to be bothering him. As a matter of fact, he initiated the conversation with my nephew. We just talked about the changes we've noticed in the island over the years. Didn't discuss music or "who he was". Seemed like a down-to-ea...

Best Key Lime Pie Recipe

I had forgotten how much I liked key lime pie until I tried it at Skinny's last week. I remember making it once about 4 years ago using Williams and Sonoma bottled key lime juice. What a disaster!! My brother was sure that I had used Lestoil by mistake. (I didn't, I swear!) So, does anyone have a gr...

Fish Food & Snorkeling

Hi Guys,

I came across a link for something called Snorkle Snax. Have any of you used any commercially made fish food while snorkeling? Does it work well, and more importantly, is it safe for the fish?

TSA locks

I've never used the TSA locks and was wondering what the general consensus is on them. Do most of you use them? Good, bad, indifferent?

I'm confused. I thought that we only needed a raised seal birth certificate and driver's license to travel by water from USVI to BVI.

Our nephew is joining us this trip and he only has the BC and license. We were hoping to do a day trip to Jost on the inter-island ferry. Will this be an option?

Thank you, Teresa! I’m sure your e-mail to Fox was every bit as effective as mine in giving Jamie’s family a voice.

I agree with you 100%. If we don’t stand up for what’s right with something as important as this, then things are never going to change – and unfortunately, they could even get worse.

Bert, like you I followed the thread about Jamie’s murder on the other board. Reading his family’s pleas for help just broke my heart. I think the only thing that matters concerning this subject is the fact that a woman’s child was brutally murdered on June 19 and no one has answered any of her or h...
