Linda, I'm glad to hear you are doing well. At least you don't have as much snow as upstate New York! 🙂 And Linda from MI is right... it has bee...

Hi Puffer... we have been here for a year and a half and have lived directly on the water in both places we have lived. So far our old dinosaur of a c...

You definitely have to form your own opinions. Before we moved down here, we heard from several people AND all over this message board that the island...

I think it makes sense to want you to spay/neuter your animal. Even if it is a pure bred, there are WAY TOO MANY animals already on this island. It is...

I would second Cottages by the Sea. Great beach, great staff.. and a little kitchen in the room so you can actually have meals at home and not have to...

Please go to the Animal shelter! There is a small charge for adopting a cat, but by the time you factor in the cost of spay.neuter and the animals fir...

It wasn't uncommon in Phoenix to drive an hour just to go to a friend's house for dinner. Now, I rarely even go get my mail because it is ALL THE WAY ...

In regards to books... they will last, but you have to be careful. Don't store them in boxes, keep them as dry as possible. The only books I have "los...

To be fair, it's not that the east end of St. Croix never has any crime and I know plenty of people that live out there and don't have their heads stu...

I've found for the most part there is no rhyme or reason to which side people walk on at the grocery store. And forget about signalling! 🙂

Terry, you win. Let me know when you are back on island and I'll bust out my scrabble board.

Zack, when you find out for sure, would you post the details? Thank you 🙂

It took me about five minutes, it took my partner a couple of weeks. I have to say that it was way eaier than I thought it would be. The only think to...

Hi STT Res, My only correction.. we do indeed have iguanas on STX. Maybe not running amok all over the island as it sounds like St. Thomas is, bu...

Sorry, side note: It is in the same parking lot as Vinnie's and Mailboxes, Etc.

I was just at Indulgences at Sunny Isle while a friend got a hair cut.. they do facials, pedicures, manicures, waxing, etc. The pedicure chairs look g...

A Trip to the Beach by Melinda and Robert Blanchard, although about Anguilla, relates so well to so many of the problems here, especially in opening a...

I love Villa Morales (on the Queen Mary near F'sted) Great atmosphere, the owners treat everyone like family. Also, it's inexpensive compared to so ma...

You're right, Alexandra... every time he comes here, he tries to get us to give his asylum, so he doesn't have to go back. We've told him that we woul...

31 and 1/2 months until retirement... not that you're counting or anything! 🙂

Candy, are you teaching in Cleveland proper or a suburb? I am originally from Bay Village.

I do know a couple of people who bike for fun and exercise. One drives her bike to the Carambola area and bikes the hills there, the other lives in Ju...

It will definitely be easier to find a place once you are here and start telling everyone you meet that you are looking for a place. Plan on having en...
