Trip report # 2
If I did this right you should beable to click on the pic's to get to full sizes ones.
Well I’m up before the sun can’t seem to shake that. Get up make coffee even though I don’t drink it love the smell though. Sit on the deck and watch the Island come to life Waiting for Starfish to open.
Head out for the market before every one is up to pick up muffins and fruit for a lite bite today is Miss Lucy’s for brunch try the pistachio muffins are my favorite. Head down to C&C car rental to fill out the paper work. We get there the owner is wondering why I called and gave him a hard time for the car not being here. When we explained they really weren’t he couldn’t believe it described the 2 guy’s that brought the cars back they weren’t anybody that he knew.
Headed out north shore to show all the STJ virgins what they had been missing. Made the mandatory stops at all the over looks and they are seeing why we love it here. Get to Miss Lucy’s and get rock star parking. The food and drinks and view are out of this world like I remember.

Head over to Josephine’s to pick up salad greens for the special supper I have planned of Monday night if you have never been there you have to see her gardens and the salad greens are some of the best I’ve had any where. The girls take a tour of the gardens can’t believe their eyes.
Head back to the villa on centerline stop at the smoothie truck after 5 smoothies and 3 beers and 58.00 later continue on run in to a herd of cows.
Back at Cygnus my son Paul and I go snorkeling in Chocolate hole to get him used to it. It’s a little rougher then usually is but still see a lot of life.
Get ready and head to the beach bar. With a stop on the ferry dock to wave at the camera and call our friends and family back home to rub it in worked great.
At the beach bar thank god for STJ Ruth if she hadn’t found me with her cheese head on I wouldn’t found any of the forumite’s Met Ruth and Ron. Tracy and Juice and a couple of lurkers Dara and Andy They were all great had a fun time. Another late night but worth every minute of it.
I hope I'm not boring you yet
Tom

Its great that you are putting pics to go with the story. I want to learn how to do that after I get back. Makes us feel like we're there with ya!
OH MY GOD!! I think I saw you and your wife on the webcam! I just clicked on it to dream a little more and there was this couple (I swear it was you!) waving! then the next picture you had a cell phone up to your ear! I thought it was soo funny and now I want to do the same!
Thanks for the second trip report. Can you please give me a little more info on the gardens where you got your greens? Never heard of it, and we will be there in February.
Thanks!

i am so sorry! I just read your trip report #1 and saw that your wife past away. Insert foot in mouth for sure. Please accept my condolences. I am truly sorry for your loss. I am wondering if it wasn't you who I saw on the webcam though.
Sincerely,
Dean-O
Awesome job! I really like the pictures to bring life to the story. Glad you have a great time!
Hi Dean-o
You turn by the gas station in coral bay to get to Josephine's and it's quite a ways up that road you would think you went to far there is a yellow pole building on the left the coolers are in there just honk your horn and some one will come out to check you out. She has other produce to that is fresh from her gardens and the most interesting plants.
Tom
