Well, we have finally decided. St. Croix will become our new "green acres", quarter acre anyway. I don't want to ever have to own a lawn mower much less a tractor ever again! If a machete can't do it, it's too big or too much grass. can't wait to get the gardens planted. Got to find a couple of large coconut trees first, will probably wait till after the "blowing season" though.
The decission was hard, it aint Belize and Caye Caulker where our hearts are, but it does have it's own island appeal. And no passport required!! I will admit that the one determining factor was that 88y/o Mom will feel more secure on this large island. It has a K-Mart, two infact. And there is a large hospital all to her liking. Since she wants to live with us these considerations had to be paramount. The kids and their families can come visit here just as easily and no passport. The grandkids are soo excited!! Heather is already saving her money, way to go girl!
So now the adventure begins. Building a new house on a new island and this one with beurocratic requirements. Shit!! Oh well; our carnival won't stop
our mangos will rot
we will enjoy
our wee sunny spot!!!
Cheers!!!
The adventure begins, party on!!!!!
