Granted, if its great views you want, and don't mind the occasional bug in the teeth, by all means sit on the "outside". I am getting to the age where I prefer the "inside". :D

I'm always stressed (in a good way) the day before I leave and I never sleep the night before even after nearly 20 years of going down to STJ. I guess it's because we have such an early flight out of Grand Rapids and the airport is an hour away from our house so I need to be up at about 2:30 or 3AM...

Those breakers coming in are Enormous! I too noticed the large powerboat missing. Its possible he may have moved to the north side. It appears the Serendiptiy webcam has frozen at 5:46PM.

Memo to Ruth: I sense a opportunity here. :idea: If we are pathetic enough to be excited by the erection of a tent on a dock by watching a snapshot every 15 seconds, imagine the potential of a live video feed for a small monthly fee of course. The human drama that would unfold before our eager eyes,...

We are staying at Soul Island in November this year, I would be curious what someone who has stayed there has to say too. I know the owner has a popular resturant in the Baltimore area.

In the old days you could invoke Rule 240 and the airline had to place you on the next available seat on any airline, not just your airline. This still holds true for the legacy airlines like Delta and American. Sprit is a discount carrier and does not adhere to Rule 240 and does not have interline ...
