    My alarm went off at 6:00 and I could tell that I was excited about the prospect of searching the beach again because I had no problem getting out of bed. I was out the door by 6:30. I decided to stop and do a nearby cache on my way…

    I stayed up late last night to finish the blog, but I was bound and determined that we would be out the door at a decent time this morning so as not to waste the day away. Thankfully the weather looked like we were going to have a good day…

    Today is the day we went Nevis. We had learned that Thrifty does an exchange program whereby we could take the water taxi to Nevis and then pick up another rental car on Nevis for no extra cost. We could have taken our rental car on the ferry, but the…

    We had an alarm set for 7:00 so we had plenty of time to get ready and eat a little something before our 8:30 pick-up for our guided hike of Mt. Liamigua Mt. Liamigua is a stratovolcano that last erupted 1,800 years ago. It rises to the height of 3,792…

    We again took our time getting out the door this morning as I finished up finalizing plans for the next couple of days and didn't head out until about 11:00a.m. The first beach we stopped at was North Friar's Bay Beach, which is the beach you can see from the…

    We took our time this morning and didn't get out the door until after 10:00. We decided to go across the street and eat a brunch meal at Sweet and Savory Bistro. I had and egg Florentine sandwich and Tom had a club sandwich (this is a real shocker to…

    Even though we were exhausted yesterday, we stayed up for the entire Lions game. We were disappointed to see the NFC North totally fall apart in the playoffs. Also the people in the room next to us had their TV on really loud and the walls must be made of…

    Since I have retired from the military I have done a pretty good job of having a trip planned and travel to look forward to. Unfortunately the cruise we were scheduled to go on in an early December was cancelled due to our travel companions needing to recover from knee…

    Brandon had thrown the idea out on day 1 about getting up to see the sunrise on one of the days. I had asked Brandon last night if he was still game, but he was an emphatic "No". None-the-less Tom and I still thought it was a great idea so…

    Once again I was up with roosters. We took our time getting ready and enjoyed another great breakfast by the pool and met up with the gang at 10:00 to walk to Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park. On the way we stopped by the US Coast Guard Cutter Ingham…

    I had set an alarm for 8:00, but was up well before that. It was probably because of all the roosters who were cock-a-doodle-dooling. The hotel had a great complimentary breakfast that consisted of breakfast sandwiches, croissants, yogurt, ham, cheese, fresh fruits, etc that we enjoyed by the pool with…

    Nothing excites me more than when a friend or family member reaches out and asks if we want to go on a trip with them. In this case, our friend Brandon wanted to go on a trip to celebrate turning 40. It was a quick yes from us and also…
