Re: rent via vrbo or villa management company??

I use both but tend to prefer VRBO (in general, not just for STJ) ...but YOU have to do due diligence in either case. My experience in 2013 was that many VRBO listings went directly t...

Re: Your best day on St John
Not sure I have a best day (they're all good there) but I can offer a few comments on "favorite things"... I go for a villa with an awesome view so that every day is spectacular to look at! I love waking up, or coming home to a million dollar view...it makes every day awesome! http://i240....

Re: iPod Found on Trunk Bay Beach today (June 18th)
Well, here's the deal....I did it for two reasons... 1) I'm a big fan of random acts of kindness! 2) I love to solve a good mystery, I started on Hardy Boys books in grade school and loved them, http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff71/sherb/hardyboys_zps3f207945.jpg ...then moved onto harder stuff ....

Re: iPod Found on Trunk Bay Beach today (June 18th)
Good for you...Karma will surely be kind to you..:) Thanks, I shared the effort to find the owner with my kids, it was fun...the iPod took on a persona along the way, it had the name "Meghan" engraved on the back and so the iPod became Meghan. Then we listened to the music on the iPod tog...

Re: One week to go...but a little anxious
We were there a few weeks ago with our son (14) and daughter (11) and they had a great time. Our kids had snorkeled once before in Aruba so that part was already a done deal for us. Our kids spent some "down time" at the villa texting etc. on their devices via wifi and that was their conne...
