October is the time that season starts ramping up, so there will still be many housing options on October 1. By the end of October, the choices will b...

On STJ, some areas have great service, for most it is between limited and nonexistent. Dropped calls, data that goes through hours later, etc. I know ...

I think the best way I explain why St. John is a fit for me is; I like routine, but I hate schedules. Does that make sense to anyone but me? Ju...

Oh, and, would you ever get bored? Yes, once you have "done" everything we have to offer for evening entertainment, you may get bored --but if you lov...

We have one dental practice on St John. Did you talk to them already? What you enjoyed as a vacationer is not at all what daily life here is lik...

Oh, also -- I don't know if you've only been talking to AT&T customer service by phone, but if you have -- I would check with Darrell at ADM Wireless ...

As a workaround, if you've got an iPhone and WiFi at your house, you can use Skype to make and receive calls on your phone that way. "Does it hav...

I've heard low-end car pricing here summed up this way. If it runs, it's worth $1,000. If it runs and has working 4WD, add another thousand....

It is not at all impossible to find a one-year lease on a STT apartment. Longer leases than that are rare, though. We are used to a lot of transience ...

If you do find someone willing to do this, do not buy anything unseen!!

I think it's still one per person (or two small kittens/puppies), since in-cabin pets have to fit under the seat in front of you. Maybe you can do mo...

Good morning -- Which island, folks?

And I bet he doesn't know that some of the people trying to help him share his skin tone..... He'll have an interesting time adjusting here. 😀

An update to this thread, regarding in-cabin pet limits: US Airways has stopped limiting the number of in-cabin pets and it is no longer necessary to ...

Saltwater Gypsy Consignment (Larie Toth's shop) is closed until October, so there is nowhere on island to get secondhand furnishings. Home Again on S...

Oh, I know I can ask AT&T directly. I was just curious to hear people's experiences who have already done it. In the states you don't have to bu...

BTW, I meant ask TSA when you are at the airport; I realize you already asked reps ahead of time. Sometimes the folks "on the ground" have better cre...

It depends on personality, but using a soft-sided, top-loading carrier bag can make a world of difference in your cat having a good travel experience....
