What Would You Name Your St. John Rental House?

StJohnRuth · Post by **StJohnRuth** » Thu Jul 12, 2007 7:06 pm

Now you're talking!

How about:
-Soul of a Sailor
-Magic
-Living in Paradise (Let's give poor Sherry a break, here.)
-French Kissing Life (maybe too racy?)
-From Hello
and last but not least, since the bank will own all of these houses,
-Anything But Mine

-Ruth

Since I can't think of a clever song title, I'll just go with the name of the cutiest little restaurant we found in Va. in May. It is called "Lindsay's Roost".......our last name. (Lindsay, not Roost)

Hey, Pia,
The Grateful Shed is where the grups [grown ups] go to hide from the kids during the party situations in anywhere USA.

Hey, Ruth,If it has to be a song....

Shanty, by Jonathan Edwards

Gonna sit down in the kitchen
fix me somethin' good to eat.
And make my head a little high
and make this whole day complete.
Gonna lay around the shanty, mama,
and put a good buzz on.

and for those who don't know the song, the rest of the lyrics are:

pass it to me ,baby,
pass it to me slow
blah, blah blah.
if you don't know the song, you probably wouldn't get it.

What a great thread. Keeping the Star Trek theme in mind I'd have to go with "Make it So" for a home on St. John.

How about Memory Motel,after one of the Stones tunes.
Island girl says Wings of a Dove,an old Marley tune.

My final answer...

Sinatra:
"Fly Me To The Moon"

The song we walked down the aisle to for our wedding.

I'm a serious lurker coming out of the dark but while reading these WONDERFUL ideas I was surprised it took so long for Mr. Chesney's influence to arise...

I immediately thought of:

Be as you are
(which if you havent heard it, highlights why he loves St John so)

but my personal choice would have to be:

Amazing Grace

...I once was lost, but now am found,
was blind, but now, I see.

If your going to use Sinatra, It's got to be
"Summer wind"

I used to want that to be the name of my boat... for obvious and NOT so obvious reasons.

But boat names.... that's a whole 'nother thread, isn't it?
