Hey there sports fans. Hit the deck at Dulles last night. Picture this, 86 degrees to 24. Not a happy camper when you see your breath, but there is more to the story. Highlites will include: the plan and how long in advance we planned, the players, the reasons we do this, the fantastic forumites we met and were reconnected with,the villa, the morning walk where I saw the license plate "Jorge-8" on a blue Dodge work truck near the villa Colibre,the beaches, the fish, the food, the dive with ScottB, the folks at the airport which included a professional golfer and his wife who stayed at the Ritz....missed you....God bless...Bill

Hi! Tracie here. Glad you made it back safe and sound! It was such a pleasure to meet you both, and I so enjoyed our dinner with you. As Scott said we can not say thanks enough for all of your help. It was so nice to spend time with such special people.

Take care.
Love Tracie[/img]

I think if you look close Jorge you'll see that that is an ending quote mark not an inch mark. It is a neat story coming though hang in there.

Well welcome home to all of you!!

And I can't wait to start reading your TR's and observations, etc. They will certainly help me get through this last week before we leave. I am all packed now, and have nothing to do but wait for our turn. Yippie!!!

Awww...we are all back now to 45 degrees compared to 85!! AND I had to shovel the snow to get into my house!!! YUK
We had a great week & a 1/2on the Virgin Islands! Lindsay got some amazing Graduation pictures taken on Cinnamon Beach that she can't wait to show her friends to make them all jealous.

And the girls can't say enough great things about Ruth for letting them use the bathroom & storing their luggage so we could take them to Woody's. (watch their web site to see the girls & us having a blast)

I'm probably not so good at trip reports...& I have ooddles of laundry to catch up on, but I'll try to give some highlights....& some lows.

Best suprise the kids gave me when I got home was instead of a Christmas tree this year, they went out & got me an awesome 7' Palm Tree all decorated in Cruzan Rum lights with a Santa in tropical swim trunks to go underneath!! (I do have great kids!!)

I will post a picture of the **Christmas Tree**....man, it's a challenge to string lights on palm trees!! Everyone here thinks I've gone nuts with a Palm Tree instead of a ~real tree~!! But my kids know me better!
