St John, USVI

Okie dokie - finally.. the commentary from the trip. We flew down Tuesday before New Year's. We rented a car in St. Thomas because, true to Gary form, we had to stop off at Sherwin Williams and pick up some stain for the Pond Bay job. After obtaining the stain we headed for the car ferry and took our spot on the small ferry. After slowly ROCKING and ROCKING our way towards St. John, we made it and I eventually lost the green color I was sporting from the rocky ride over. We went to the Wicklund's for a pizza dinner and play time for the kids. They were thrilled to see their buddies again.

Wednesday we all headed towards Maho beach -my personal favorite beach on the whole island. After our fill there, we headed to the Westin pool so the kids could play and Michelle could get food ready for the New Year's Eve party we were going to that night.

All the kids with their drinks. Why do I get a feeling that I'll be seeing this shot again in a few years, but those drinks won't be virgin?

Quinn and Zack at Maho as well.
Later that night we headed up to the highest point on St. John for a New Year's eve party at some friend's house. What a gorgeous view. You could see all over the Virgin Islands -British and US. I'd love to post some pictures from the party, but well, they are on the digital so no such luck.
