I finally registered!

I've been lurking on this site for a number of years now so I figured it's time to step up and be recognized as the St John obsessed beach bum wannabe that I've become.
I actually found out about Paradise from my adult daughter several years ago when she was recommended to visit one of the eco camps. I bribed her with three days at Maho if she would spend a few days with me and some girlfriends at a different place. (Sorry, didn't want to deal with cold showers and walking a mile to the bathroom at 3 AM.)
The girlfriends and I got hooked...what can I say, YOU all know what it's like. We raved so much that we had to allow the menfolk to come too. The first year there were 4 total, 7 the second year and we just returned from our third trip with 11 total. (The daughter and her boyfriend joined us.)If we keep up at this rate we'll empty our little New England town and have rent the entire island eventually.
I have to thank everyone here for the excellent information that I've garnered over the last few years. My friends are amazed at the little details that I've been able to glean ahead of time. We used Rachel Brown as our taxi driver this last trip (wonderful lady!) and she asked me to thank Xislandgirl for posting her name here - she apparently gets lots of referrals from this site.
That's enough introduction for now - don't want to bore you all. I'll have to figure out how to do a ticker....we're already talking about NEXT year. Again...you guys already KNOW how that goes.
