Teresa, That sentence kind of threw me, too. I think in any report, there are going to be a couple of poorly worded statements or errors. Mi...
Randy, If you haven't already, try to reach Mr. Fedeles by phone. He's busy and sometimes off island. Offer to take him to lunch at a nice restau...
Here's a recent article on the schools and related matters (private schools are said to be quite good):
wisconsinmom, You’ll find plenty of parks and beaches for families. There is a pretty big biking and jogging scene on St. Croix, particularly on ...
lew, Here is the phonebook, where you can type in “woodworking” (one word): www.viphonebook.com
Islander, I think you may mean Shoys Beach. And you've convinced me to go to the Lawaetz Museum this weekend. I think Hans Lawaetz, if he is stil...
Autumn, I’ve wanted to type up an off-the-beaten-path list of things for St. Croix for some time. This is admittedly a short list, as I’ve only l...
TH, I’m inclined to believe what you say. Most Cruzans are Democrats, which would lead you to think we have the socially tolerant attitude of mai...
Richard and kudzu, I know you both have the best interests of the islands at heart, and I suspect there is truth in what both of you say. Some pe...
Richard, I’m aware of the access problem, and maybe that’s why I think it’s sad: You can’t easily visit one of your most beautiful beaches. I was...

TH posted: “eople are not as open about our dislike [of gays and lesbians] as to discriminate against anyone, for the most part.” Of course ...
EE, That's exactly the sort of article I was afraid I would see. I missed it because I usually just read the St. Croix Avis. St. Trauma...
There are many local (non-resort) beaches where people let their dogs run. If you don’t already have it, you can get the “Pocket Map: St. Croix” (put ...
Funny, but it makes sense-a D.C. chauffeur suddenly confronted with steep dirt roads, no guard rails at the cliffs, etc. It looks like your Uncle’s ch...
Ronnie, I find it hard to believe that a civilian car would be used to transport the president. Times have certainly changed. Who was driving it?
Yes, I was there. That's a rare greathouse ruin, being of rock. Most were made with coral block and limestone marl. By the way, welcome! I see yo...
I've never seen this. I'm usually not in the Sunny Isle area. That is, of course, a big hangout place for teenagers.
Darrell and Joshy2, You have chosen wisely! Some divers think St. Croix has the best diving in the world. Back in the 60s when tourism was taking...
