Yep, we just like our weekly sit on the beach and chill time together. That's what we were doing yesterday. 
We had a tourist ask us about "sn...
Maybe try going to the beach and sticking your feet into the water for a minute or two to see if it is warm enough. Just a thought. Did that yest...
It does say "Escape the Concrete Jungle." I'm still looking at it sideways, though.

That last one was pretty darn funny, Iris. You've got the touch.
It's definitely confusing. I do think all the "jammin" and "steamin" and "One Love" is pretty hilarious and naive. But then that site enjoys being g...
No, no raw dairy on island. And the one island dairy closed up a few years back (according to my BF) but products made from reconstituted milk are st...
Bombi, will you share with all of us the times on Tuesday and Thursday?
I'm a certified teacher myself, but I'm not teaching here, just want ...
Your own goat, really.
Disagree completely. The local standoffishness can be downright RUDE (i.e., "you don't BELONG here"), where as the Continental standoffishness is gro...
Agreed. I was born in Europe and lived several places there, but I lived in Texas for almost 25 years. I graduated from Texas A&M. My parents still...
I don't know that I agree with the restaurants being devastated - when we go out, all the restaurants we go to are full (edited to add - or semi-full....
I know a prominent stateside transplant that has been here for more than 20 years. He was given this bit of wisdom by a prominent Crucian. "It do...
Jet Blue is putting together vacation packages to ST Croix in partnership with the Divi. (Casino Available) I hope they add to their routes then ...
For me, definitely culture. Don't expect a welcome mat. Whoever said that people here look suspiciously upon newcomers to see if they can hack it is e...
Like the Disney cruise that drops people off at DisneyWorld.
I think part of the appeal for cruisers though is getting to see a lot of island...
I've noticed that they've been organizing the housewares as well - new items? The reorganization of the wine is great too, and as I mention above...
What I've had in the past - they bring a plate of fresh raw meats (seafood) and veggies to the table along with assorted dipping sauces, and a HOT roc...
I consistently buy fresher produce on island then I've bought in the states. I also find manners and ignorance go both ways. And I don't know a...
ETA: I understand that maybe the concern isn't that it's a STX thing, more just that there aren't any anywhere. But there can be other sources of to...
@coolchica - sorry you had such a bad experience here. I should let my boyfriend of two years (who has lived on STX for 7 years) post, but I'll post ...
Went into Schooner Bay today and they're installing a large open reach-in cooler of some sort in front. I didn't ask what it was for as they were bus...
There are also no cruise ships scheduled to visit STX from the end of April until the end of October. It's my experience that there aren't many c...
@Hiya! - so that's why I've seen lots of Danish tourists at Schooner Bay. They seem to be there pretty regularly - the store staff do very well servi...
Twitter and Facebook both have lots of information going out on the USVI and the activities there are to do here. They can be powerful (and free!) in...
