Hello everyone,

Finally making my way back June 26th thru the 30th - just a short trip this time. It's for my "personal interview" with the board of bar examiners and then for the swearing in ceremony on Friday (if they think I'm worthy after my interview), then I will be officially licensed to practice law in the islands!

Still believe the permanent move is at least 2 years away. 🙁

While I'm there, anyone up for drinks on Wednesday or Friday nite? I was thinking about drinks at Paradise Point for Wednesday nite (I have actually never been up there) or wherever. I'm bringing a friend with me, hubby couldn't make it and we are staying at the Wyndham (another place I've never been).

Of course, after I drop my friend off at the airport on Friday, I have to get a conch pate or 2 and deliver them to our favorite resident before I eat them! 😛

Hope to meet some of you and hope to see some old friends too

C Urchin

Sorry...meant to PM this....oh, well...

HI. Just saw your dates. I can have drinks on the 27th at Paradise Point. I have people coming on to STT at 9pm, so drinks might work perfectly with a run to the airport

Blu-

I think Wed nite is the night you can't drive up to Paradise Point you have to take the thing (ski lift looking thing, tram, whatever it's called) up - - I think. . . . but isn't it the sunset party that nite with music? Anyone know for sure? Plan on Wed nite then!

See you then - I will pm you with my phone number.

C Urchin 😀

Hey ,,C Urchin,Blu,, I can meet you also. I'm traveling solo, staying at Point Pleasant. Blu I'll be able to recognise you from your pretty picture you posted earlier. That sounds fun to meet some forum contributors. What about you Future Islander and Mrs.FI?????

I'll have to leave around 9 (assuming the flight I am meeting is on time). Anytime prior would work for me.

Does anyone know if we can drive up or not? Oh well, my daughter would probadly LOVE to take the tram up anyway. Either way...

STT Resident - I will not eat those pates, I will not eat those pates, I will keep repeating mantra as I'm driving to your place on Friday! 😛

Sherri, Sleeper18, Blu - Sunset party so 6ish or so is fine with me on Wednesday nite - Blu has to get to airport by 9 so that gives us plenty of time to catch up

Sherri - I've heard so many good things about you on this board and from gobucs when her and I met up last year, can't wait to meet everyone.

anyone else up to meeting at Paradise Point on Wed?

C Urchin 😀

We're coming in the next day. If you want to put it off for one day and someone wants to pick us up at the airport and drive us to the meeting and then over to Red Hook ferry, I'm sure we'd love that. If anyone wants to work with that, we'd be fine with that. We don't have a lot of luggage so something that carries driver and two others would work. Sherri would see that I'm a nice person.....wife is nicer. STT would be able to slap me. You can see I'd add a lot of fun to the meeting.

Promoguy - when are you coming in (what time?) I have my "personal interview" Thursday afternoon and could pick you up afterwards and then drop you and your wife off off at the Ferry since it's on my way back to the Wyndham. . . . Let me know, pm or otherwise.

I'm pretty much traveling next week for business starting on Tuesday and expect to be "on the road" alot (i.e. no internet). so, I might not answer prior to next weekend.

promoguy, dear heart, so I guess that C Urchin will be at my place on Friday June 29th to deliver conch pates maybe perhaps (don't trust her worth a damn after she bloody well ATE the last intended deiivery but hope nonetheless springs eternal,,,)

So, if you're coming in "next day" from C-Urchin, that would be Saturday 30th and then you're going right to STJ?

I just can't keep abreast of all these travel plans. All of you seem to be off-kilter where I'm concerned but before you start making smarty-pants comments on that score, you are here for just a short while to HOLEEDAY!

All your plans sound great.

Blu, hope you can make it properly this time around. The genips this year are all over the tree but won't be ready until way after your trip. Return late August/early September for your daughter's delight! Cheers to all! XXX

Hi everyone,
Wondering if we are still on for the 27th or if I am going to see for myself exactly just how nice promoguy can be?
I have seen others mention that they are still shooting for the 27th on other threads. C Urchin?
Either date is good for me, but don't want to miss Blu or any others that wouldn't be able to change their date!
Will plan on the 27th unless I hear otherwise!

Hey Gobucs,
When ya movin' down? 🙂
Wish you could be here for the get together too!

Sherri, we don't arrive until June 28th.

Just to let you know ahead of time. I really am a sweetheart. In fact, you would love hanging with the promoguy family. We are just so much fun and joy. Come on over to the parade on the 4th and I'll buy you a Corona with one of those lime wedgies in the top. See how nice I am.

Promoguy,
Sure you are a sweety, everyone is entitled to their opinions, just be a little gentler next time, OK? 🙂 I am not one to hold grudges in any way!!!! I promise!
Have you heard anything about the date changing to the 28th? Did you respond to C Urchin and let her know your arrival time? Did you pm her? How about all of you who have said you would try to make it on the 27th?
I am looking forward to meeting everyone!

Sherri, Blu, Sleeper18, and whoever else is interested

I'm still on for the 27th (6ish) for the sunset party at Paradise Point. I picked Wednesday b/c I'm pretty sure they have live music that nite. Sorry promoguy - However, my interview is on Thursday at 3:30 - if you and yours are coming in after that time, I would be glad to pick you up and drop you off at the ferry to St. John since it's not really out of my way back to the Wyndham.

Of course, sherri's comment - "just be a little gentler next time. . ." kinda worries me. . . 😀

As for recognizing me, I don't know how to post a pic, even though Connie says it's easy. I could wear a funny hat or something but am not wasting packing space with a funny hat. I will be with my friend - 2 girls, both of us with dark hair, one short (me) and the other a little taller (and dressed better).

See you there,

C Urchin 😀

Can't wait
Carla
