Rough seas

The surf at the beaches has been choppy and the boat rides on the sea have been bumpy. Some people call it the Christmas Winds. Some people say it’s the Caribbean version of two feet of snow in the Northeast. Most people just say “Glad we’re not in Boston.”

    You got white sand, we got white snow. You walk out in your bare feet and you look relaxed. We walk out in our bare feet and we look like we have major problems.

    Yet with all the snow around us here in Boston, I still kept up with my Christmas tradition of wearing flip flops no matter what.

    And some people say there are no seasons in St. John. Hang ten!

    It was almost 60 degrees in Chicago yesterday. Our snowmen all melted. Today it’s back to 30 degrees. Lots of frozen mud.

    I knew that we should have bought Love City Surf Shop after all!!! Well, we did have to consider – how often do the waves occur??? I would take rough surf versus snow anyday. Never say never – Happy New Years!

    P.S. How do you travel with your personal surfboard(s)??? Now with the luggage surcharges – how would they classify the pricing? And, after paying to have it shipped, our luck there would be no surf-

    Debbie,

    You could avoid the luggage surcharges. Just surf to St John. May take you a little longer, but you’ll get there!

    Happy New Year!

    good morning-
    what happen to that palm tree on trunk bay?
    i think that palm tree should go down in history as the most photographed palm on
    stj. i definately have a great picture of that palm. i even sent to the stj magazine.
    oh, a little rough chop isn’t all bad when its
    81 degrees, the water is still warm, the colors
    beautiful, etc, etc.

    tired of my beeper, tired of my phone,
    tired of this tired old tie that i have on,
    come on you all know the song…

    happy new year
