Okay, okay already! 3,2,1. We’re back.

The idea was to just spend a little chill time in the Virginia Countryside. We actually don’t chill very well. (As you can see, neither one of us could even let loose the grip on our iPhones - that’s how your comments get posted so fast.)

It’s kind of cold still, and to tell you the truth the country kind of smells. So we’re back.

But for the record, we only took 2 of our 5 vacation days. So you still owe us 3 days this year. (You’re a demanding crowd, you know that right?) Back to St. John stuff tomorrow.

    Hooray! A Sort of Chill Break is better than none at all. It’s weird to see you two in leather jackets instead of tee shirts and backwards baseball caps.
    Welcome back! Thanks for posting.

    See, it was the government with their rubber hoses and it didn’t take anywhere close to five days for you to tell them everything you know. Virgina countryside - we all know what that means - Langley. Glad to see you’re back in one piece. Aliens my foot.

    Welcome back! Sorry your vacation didn’t turn out as you hoped. Almost didn’t recognize you guys in jeans and jackets. Enjoy putting those shorts back on.

    I’m going to assume you both are drinking Beck’s because beers from St. John Brewers are only available in Rhode Island, New Jersey, and California. ;)

    The country does kind of smell…we’re from Wisconsin, we know.

    This message actually comes to you from the villa we are renting in STJ. Maybe we’ll see you on island.

    By the way, Ruth can’t figure out how to work the camera you suggested she buy…she needs your help.

    Nothing like a bit of cold country air to make you appreciate the balmy tropical breezes even more. Welcome back!

    I’m so glad you are back. That was a very long 2 days. You should think about a California vacation in the Wine Country. We are in the 80’s, you can get Virgin Island Pale Ale, and drink wine if you want.

    Welcome Back!

    Welcome back guys! The O-SJ rehab was getting full to overflowing! I can understand the quick retreat from the cold smally hills, but I really think you should do Napa Valley…..if you have to be gone at all, that is….
