A BIG picture for a little island (only 9 1/2 miles long)

Here's a very recent photo of the East end of St. John USVI ...
(That's the British Virgin Islands in the background.)

I decided to scale it back a bit ... :)

I'm sure that Susan has a lot for me to do today, so I might not be around very much ... But, I'll try to pop in as much as I can ...

This thread´s looking very festive Richard! Very bright. ;D 

 Thanks for the warm looking photo, does any smuggling go on between the two islands? They seem so close.

Thank you Richard
The photo is wonderful, and makes me sad that I am not there  :'(

David,
Smuggling was big in the past.
So I guess it goes on today, but I am not sure which goods give the greatest profit.

I too am sad I am not there. The view out my window is decidedly less appealing; it features  ice, snow, and grey clouds!  :(

Mal,
In a couple of years, you will be looking for two front teeth.

Zina spent one year singing that song (Hippo) over and over so it is well ingrained in my head.

Did you get all of your chores done?  Ready for some R&R in the USVI?
