**BREAKING NEWS**

We have MADE THE LIST!!! Finally! It's gettin' REAL now!!!! 5.5 Weeks!!!! WOOT!!

In other news....is it too soon to plan our forumite get-together? We will be there August 2 - 15. Anyone? Anyone??

Had a GREAT time last year with Silverheels and Sister, MichiganGirls, AwardB and Sylvia, and more!

We arrive on the 12th, so not much overlap there Maybe the 13th or 14th?

If all goes well with Rich's health, we will be there from the 8 th till the 18 th. Think Silverheels will be down the 6 to the 20 th.

My group is on island through August 9th. I am not sure that we will be coming back into Cruz Bay in the evenings after the 2nd as we are staying over on Francis Bay for our second week, but you never know. One time we did the forum gathering during the day at a beach and that was a lot of fun.

Roxanne,


Any day any time for Silverheels and sister (Boxer). We are on island from the 5th to the 19th and staying on Giftt Hill In Sugar Nest. Mary and Rich are staying there too (hopefully). Ward and Sylvia will not be on STJ this year (sadly). The 10th and 17th are Sundays but we could meet any day. See you at Maho, Roxanne! Would love to have you come up to our place. It was so nice of you to have us at Apito last year.

So....maybe Wed, 13th for everyone?? Or if Sunday is still the chosen day....the 10th?

Poo - either way, we will miss some forumites. Life isn't fair. Why can't we all be there at the same time?!?!

13th works for me, if it works for everyone else. Will be great to see everyone again

Cool! August 13. Let's plan on that. I'll follow back up closer to time. CANNOT WAIT!!!

I'm bumping this back up because we're getting close and it's probably time to set the date and place!

So true! Although at this point, we're so nervous. We are supposed to fly out of CLT Saturday AM and arrive on STT around 1:45pm. Ughhhhhh. Stupid weather. Want to cry.

Positive thoughts - it will be fine

You're right, Heidi! Positive thoughts. Positive thoughts. Positive thoughts. I just need to keep saying that over and over.

I think it was decided on Aug. 13 at the BB. It's usually 4:30-5:00.

Certainly stay positive about the weather -- this is what the NWS in PR said earlier this evening about this wave.

IT IS TOO EARLY TO PRECISE JUST HOW MUCH OR EVEN IF THIS WAVE WILL
AFFECT THE LOCAL AREA AS A WAVE OR TROPICAL CYCLONE...IF AT ALL.
THERE IS JUST TOO MUCH UNCERTAINTY AT THIS TIME AND THERE IS GREAT
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN GLOBAL MODELS. WE ARE OBSERVING THE TROPICAL
WAVE CLOSELY AND ITS EVOLUTION...BUT IT IS JUST TOO EARLY YET TO
PRECISE HOW OR EVEN IF THIS WILL AFFECT THE LOCAL AREA. STAY TUNED
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION.

Hope everyone who bought their bracelet last year brings it with them. Have mine packed. Can't wait. This time next Tues. I will be in the air. Flying from Richmond, VA and meeting Silverheels in Miami and then its off to STT. Get in at 3:30 so looking to get the 5:00 ferry to paradise - STJ
