Hi everyone!

Post by arawak »

Hello all! New member here, just wanted to say hi! Been reading through some of the posts and everyone here seems very friendly. I've been to St John 3 times so far and there's nothing like it. I'm actually going back for a week in July. Can't wait! Bringing a few friends who haven't been yet, so i'm pretty stoked for them. Look forward to sharing stories and chatting with everyone.

Hey Arawak, welcome to the party. Ahhh, nothing like STJ in July. Almost as hot as Washington, DC.

Cheers, RickG

Hey Rick.....I thought Houston was hot until I experienced DC in July. Just as hot. I can't remember, does it hit 90 around midnight?? If not, quit complaining! :lol:

Ya, Houston blooody damn hot. Thank God I don't wear a suit anymore.

Sweet Christine and I hit the July 4 carnival on STJ last year. The sun was so sharp as we watch the parade that I could feel the photons damaging genes and creating pre-cancerous cells. I understand heat, I understand humidity, but that stinging prickle of the sun was new to me - "Hey, I really am closer to the sun near the equator."

Cheers, RickG

Hi - Welcome! You must be excited having a trip coming up soon. I live in CT as well, the northwest corner (usually where they show all the snowfall during the winter months). Again, welcome. Ali~
