Withdrawl exercise

Post by BillVT »

So I am still suffering withdrawal from vacation. As most of us know, it lingers until we are able to return. We've already pretty much planned our next year's trip and waiting for the airlines to open up reservations for next March.

After a conversation with friends on Island I came up with this list to share with them. I assumed everyone looked at them all the time and was surprised that they didn't. So I assembled this list for them from my bookmarked sites. Most of you probably have them all. Hopefully there is a couple in here you didn't know about. I look back at the old photos on occasion as I do our own photos. In most cases I left out restaurants and businesses because 1) there's two many and 2) you can find them if you need them with the exception of the newbie guides from Skinny's and Varlack. I know there are more web cams but I think these are the best and most reliable. If you have any additions to the list, please pile them on. It will sooth the jitters.
