Wow! I can't imagine the adventures! Thanks for sharing!

Your fabulous reports have been such an inspiration for me, to linger longer and look more closely. I'm only beginning to find the little things, or the hidden things, but I credit this forum and the wonderful shared pics for that! Thanks so much!!!

Absolutely, Knolmom! Will do!

Nov 12-19th. We're going to miss you, Kklay
Your cook outs sound like a great way to spend some time together!
God willing, I'll be down again in February....

Blaine and I, and a newbie, will be on island with Mike and Toni! With any luck, Papabou too! It would be neat to meet up with a group. It tickled Toni, that Blaine and I did try to find the Sunday gettogethers back in the day, at Beach Bar. We went TWICE, and never found anyone, but heard about gre...

Here you go, Jim. I don't know if the people we interacted with in February are the owners. If so, they seemed like very nice people.

We stayed at an Airbnb up there, in February, Jim. It didn't have a pool, but there was a unit in the complex that did have one, and I've seen it listed on Airbnb.

While my passion for STJ and snorkeling hasn't diminished, my time online has - significantly! I've taken the easy way out, for the most part, but still check in occasionally. Whenever a trip is coming up, I'm nosing around more! :lol: Sniff, sniff, sniff :wink: Papabou, I don't think you've lost AL...

Congratulations on your return! Your reprieve from "real life" will be so sweet! I'll bet you find someone to go with you. Twice now, I've planned solo trips and found a traveling companion - and loved it! You've done the camping thing before, haven't you? At Cinnamon Bay? If not, I've bar...

Oh, one more thing! Indigo Grill is getting lots of great reviews. Personally, I found the food to be unenjoyably spicy in a hot way. I find that a lot of things I used to enjoy are too spicy for me these days, though, so YMMV!

For something quick, I really LIKE the pates at the furthest place inside the Red Hook ferry terminal. If you stand in the bar area, with the bar on your left, you'll see two little areas to your right, with food. I like the pates from the place that is furthest from the ferry waiting area. I had th...

Ohhh geez! I hope someone can help me, but I fear this post won't even be seen for a long time :( Did anyone write down the cut out cookie recipe? It's my go-to, now, but I always searched here on the forum to find it. I never wrote it down! I'm supposed to make the cookies for a cookies and milk ba...

Yes, you can bring your own chairs to Vie's. Maybe 2/3 of the beach has seagrapes for shade. It's one of my favorite beaches, but it does get hot in the afternoon, unless you've got a shady spot. Vie has changed her menu this year. She's only serving hot dogs and rice and beans with meat sauce. No, ...

Lunch + lounge chairs = Vie's???

We've never found loungers available after mid-morning, but perhaps if you were thinking of a late afternoon lunch? You do need to pay to access the beach and lounge chairs, there.

So sad. I wonder if other species of mosquitos, more common in our area, will carry this virus? Or if only the aedes egypti (sp?) and the one other species, will carry?
