Wendy's is owned by a local holding company. KFC and Pizza Hut are kinda sorta locally owned - by a holding company based in CA that has an offic...
And Cheeseburger's is still open. 😉 I'm glad Tutto Bene is open again! At least that's not too far away. And lately I've been on a huge India...
Blue Water's pizza is wonderful! They are closed right now (vacation), but it might be my favorite on island.
McDonald's in the USVI is owned by Arcos Dorados, a Latin American holding company and the world's largest franchisee. I think Subway is loca...

We have never had trouble with Broadband VI - it seems to always be on, even when WAPA and cable and phones are out! Plus my husband just found out t...
The Dive Shops all sell reef "safe" sunscreen - I've bought mine at Big Beard's, but you can find it other places. When we have friends visit from th...
Okay, so now I feel bad!! 😀 OldTart, you know I love you. We just disagree here. Goes back to baking pies
1. Works fine for you, different for others. I appreciate being able to call home if I need to ask a question (or a text). I also like knowing I ha...

Just for the sake of debate... To answer OldTart's question: If most cell providers offer free long distance service then, if you live here, why...

I've only had one local business not call me due to not having a 340 area code. Most have cell phones now too, and area codes don't matter! None of ...
Fer sure! There are a lot of new people here looking for cars - and I know of a volunteer here who needs a car badly (cheap)!
Oh cool! I didn't know that it actually happened. I must know the wrong people. 😉
nohstx, how did you find that out? All my former Hovensa friends don't know anything about an auction.
I didn't mention anything about paradise or that I don't like container homes? But that doesn't matter to me, whether a person is moving from Hawaii ...
Cell to cell calls aren't long distance. I have a Texas number still, and none of my friends have a trouble with it - only if they're trying to call ...
Thank you stxem, for saying more succinctly what I was thinking! 🙂 And you hit the nail on the head with your point about it being cumulative -...
Like donefarming, I do all my household shopping once a week, and then we also hit Farmer's Markets for vegetables once or twice a week. I find this ...

Well, just to again mention the "vibe" thing and it's up to you where it works best for you to live... We live out East. It is drier, yes, but w...
