Thanks for the continued great report Rick! We likely just missed you at the Tap Room on Tuesday. I could only handle one of the Pale Ale due to the Mango flavor, but the three guys continued to sip as the ladies shopped. You are right about it being a good, air conditioned (mosquito free) stop!!

I was attempting that first discovery dive during that rain storm on Tuesday! Look forward to hearing the rest!

"Immanent" what a great word to describe St John!
I've been trying to find that one word that describes how I feel about St. John. Immanent is a word that the definers find difficult. To me, its the interaction of place with the the non-verbal portion of my mind to create more than a feeling of rightness.

Cheers, RickG

Thanks for another great report. Did you think the coils helped much with the mosquitoes? We discovered them about 15 years ago on our first trip to STJ. We swear by them, but we've never had the horrible infestation you experienced.

The coils helped a bit. But, there's not much you can do with an outbreak like we had. Going to the pub helped more.
