USVI-On-Line

When I turned 40, we took our first group trip to St. John. Ten single folks in a villa - what a way to turn 40 - no pain there!! My darling friends sang Happy Birthday to me ... every night we were there. By the 4th night some folks at the end of the bar were saying "wasn'it it her birthday yesterday?".

[quote="SJfromNJ"]Ron, now I am begining to wonder about you. You had the correct answer to begin with. Now subtract 47 from 2007 and you will get the year I was born.

Subtracting that answer from 2007 wasn't in your "formula". I was following it exactly as written and I taught 7th & 8th graders all day. That's enough to turn anyone's brain to mush!! Oh well, better luck next time!

I still found the molecular weight of ice...so there! HA!

Gregg is 48 and I am 46. Man it is hard to type our ages! Remember when being 40 something was 'really old'? Now 50 is looking younger all the time.

Okay, I'm 58... how come that sounds worse when you write it out? My sons, age 31 and 28, think I've lost my mind with all the traveling, "going and doing"..I feel I'm just beginning to live!

I am 26 and my husband is 27...we are both 5 years out of college.

We first went to STJ on our honeymoon and will return for our 5th annual trip in June

My husband (the child) is 50, I (the cradle robber) am 56.

DeeJayJay, I certainly understand where you are coming from. My mother died on Christmas Eve after fighting Alzheimer's for ten years. We put our 14 year old Sheltie down last month. He had so many things go wrong in such a short time and needed surgery. We could not put him through that when he had no quality of life left. It's a shame we treat our pets with more dignity than the health care system allows us to treat the elderly.

I am 47 1/2 and so is my husband.

This thread certainly brought out the troops! I had to scroll thru 8 pages to find out everyone's age.

Hubby is 53
I just turned 44

Seems most everyone is in that range. A GREAT group of people, I might add.

Hey Susan, are you sure your husband wasn't just saying that we're immature???

I will be 48 in fourteen days and I received my first birthday card today. It was from California Girl and it's a card that plays Tim McGraw's "Just To See You Smile" when you open it. I have no idea how they got him in there, but I was quite tickled. Thank you California Girl!

arkie is 51, I'll turn 51 on stj on June 30th
Let's celebrate! Where would be a good place to celebrate?

Okay, I try not to use the 'F" word, but it is what it is.
We went to St John for my 40th, July 16th last year.
My husband thought the liberal application of Painkillers might make it more bearable. What a great call. It didn't hurt one bit.

Greg turned 36 last December 13th. I took him to Key West because 36 is not as traumatic as 40.

I'll be 38 in June. My husband turned 40 in March.

I am 47 and my hub-a-dub-dub is 53. Our first time on STJ last year and now we take off in about 7 hours. I am about to feel REALLY young
