I'm an old timer. I don't post a lot, but I read the forum at least once a day. I read Vicki's travel blog at travellerspoint. I used her blog to help plan our trip to Kauai. I'm trying to get back to St John next June...just working on different scenarios.

Hey all, I'm in the planning stages for our 4th trip to St John for next June. :D We belong to Starwood and I have been able to trade our unit in Scottsdale for a unit at the Westin. One other time, we came with my sister and her husband and rented Golden Dragon. The problem is...availability at the...

A guy walks into a bar with his pet monkey. He orders a drink, and while he's drinking, the monkey jumps all over the place, eating everything behind the bar. Then the monkey jumps on to the pool table and swallows a billiard ball. The bartender screams at the guy, "Your monkey just ate the cue...

Dear Jim Bob, I am writing this slow because I know that you can't read fast. We don't live where we did when you left home. Your dad read in the paper that most accidents happen within 20 miles from your home so we moved. I won't be able to send you the address, as the last family that lived here t...

You know you're from Texas when: You can properly pronounce Corsicana, Decatur, Wichita Falls, Burnet, Gruene, Boerne, New Braunfels, Nacogdoches, Mexia, Waco, Amarillo, and Waxahachie. You plan your Friday night after you go to the high school football game. You listen to the weather forecast befor...

Brush up on your Spanish...last time I was at MIA, nobody spoke English...

We are going to Kauai in 3 weeks and I have a 48 pack cooler. I'm going to pack it tight with frozen food and layers of techni- ice. I used it last year going to the Bahamas, but it was only a 24 hour turn around with no problems. Has anyone had any experience with a full 36 hours from start to fini...

I gave him $20, also. He was a happy camper..

We've stayed in the villas twice...they were across the street and up the hill from the resort. I didn't have a problem with them. We just rented a car and off we went...

June 2 at the Woodlands!!!! Fins Up!!!!

We have a 48 and it's great. Packed it full of stuff to the Bahamas last year...36 hours later, everything was frozen solid. Taking it to Kauai in June. I check my inside a rolling duffle bag with the rest of my villa supplies. I layer 4 sheets of techni-ice just for good measure...

I would wait and see what the new iPad brings. If the new an improved one isn't what you want or need, the iPad 2 will be deeply discounted...

Flown Cape Air several times...They load you by your weight. They weighed us on the luggage scale. The plane has to be balanced or bad things happen. We flew at night and in the rain...that was not fun. Coming back from STT to SJU in the afternoon, it's quite bumpy because of the thermals off the la...

I'm getting the new iPad as soon as it release in a few weeks. The android market is still trying to catch up to the larger tablet screens. I had the new Asus Prime and a lot of apps just didn't have the resolution. I returned the Asus because of its design flaws...a bad GPS and very weak wifi.

It's never too early to start. I've given both tests and the ACT is the easier of the two. She can keep taking them until she gets a score she likes. It's the last one she takes that counts. As stated in previous posts, there is a lot of test prep software. Just make sure she has an approved calcula...
