I wrote a trip report but when I hit preview it wiped me out and I don't have time to do it again but I will send my photos. We had a great time and Horizons Cottage was perfect for us.

Hi Don,
Great pics, loved the ones of Secret Harbour!
You are not alone, I have also written a long report, only to lose it. Frustrating!

I write my reports in word then save them and copy and paste to the forum because I've had the same thing happen to me, Great pictures though.

Thanks Don -
I enjoyed your pictures too. I saw a spotted eagle ray a few weeks ago at Francis - the first time for me so I was very thrilled - but my picture didn't turn out as nearly as well as yours. Where did you see it?
By the way, I also do what Tom does and I save the report in word and then copy and paste. If you feel like trying it again......!
Thanks you -
Tracy

Don - Great pics -- especially all the sunsets!
Lucky you at 10 degrees. It's 9 over here on the Missouri side of St. Louis!

I live in Ballwin and work in Creve Coeur -- where are you in Illinois?

Nothing better than being at work where everything is crazy, daydreaming about getting away to warm weather, and then finding your pictures! Beautiful; thanks for sharing with us!
a few answers to some of your questions

I litteraly swam into the eagle ray at Vie's beach on the west end. We were face to face and when I pulled up the camera he took off around me and circled before I got the photo taken.
I use an Adobe Photoshop program to clean up my underwater photos. It's simple and takes most of the cloudy blue out.
We live about 6 miles north of Edwardsville, Illinois and its about 75 degrees colder here today than we were at St John 3 days ago.

As one person suggested, write your reports in MS Word and then just copy and paste; the spell check helps too.
Thanks for posting your pictures.

Very nice photos! I really liked your Secret Harbour ones. The cottage you stayed in looks nice too--what views.
Sorry we won't get to read your trip report though.

Those darned computers!
