Update from TCN: UPDATE ON THE PARKING AREA CONSTRUCTION
We received an update from St Lucie County Parks & Recreation today. Although the contractor has been granted a few extra days due to weather, the park is still slated to be reopened sometime in November!
They explained that the standing water is not a concern. That section of the lot doesn't have base rock or subgrade yet, so the water is not reaching the curb.
The utility stub outs for the restroom are already installed. The building is prefabricated, so will go in quickly once it's delivered.
We've been asked to please alert our members not to cross the “Park Closed” and “Construction Zone” signs that have been placed there.
We will update you again in a few weeks. We're almost there (hopefully)!
King Tides, Supermoon, and Storms
It's that time of year again when high king tides erode the beaches. Add a supermoon and storms in the Atlantic and we've got quite a mess on our hands. Things are very wet and muddy on Hutchinson Island and there is a lot of debris washing up. We've always been the ones who keep our beach clean. You can help by bringing a bag and picking up debris whenever you are on the beach. Please do not leave your bag of trash on the beach; please take it home or put it in a county receptacle. Thanks to everyone who helps keep our beach clean!

Re: Barbados resort with beach umbrellas

Hi Carol and Geoff I know Barbados well. What type of resort or hotel are you looking for? Kids allowed or not allowed? No meals, breakfast, or all-inclusive? How much are you trying to spend per night? When you say December, do you mean all of December or part? The sun is not the same anymore. It burns differently and feels hotter, so I do understand what you mean.

U r welcome! Not too difficult when you've done it a time or 2. Use full editor and, where you want the URL inserted, click on the icon of the world with a chain. Past the URL on the first box that pops up and the name of the link in the second.

We have been there many times (8, I think). The last rip was the year before the storm. Most trips have been in January though the last time was in early June. There was no material evidence of sargassum in the anchorages though there were a number of patches of it offshore that we tried to dodge when motoring and had no problems.
From St. Vincent, the only options are Barefoot Yachts, and Horizon, Typically the boats available are several years old though Barefoot has been bringing in some new boats periodically and they show a Leopard 50 on their web site. Both are relatively small operations (as compared to the BVI) with about 10 boats each.
We have used Barefoot 6 times and Sunsail for 2 trips as they used to have a base there. Barefoot does a good job.
I have no information regarding Mayreau though I imagine the Righteous and Dennis are back in business. I suggest you talk with the charter company of look at other web sites for current informatio.

Always west side Pt Eliz. We stayed an extra day after the long haul from St Lucia. Good restaurants, shopping, site seeing. Sea turtles farm cab ride was worth it too.

Re: Cruise Towel Animals -Santa isn’t Real

A lot of views, no comments. Maybe no one clicking and reading article.
Your cabin steward may not be making that little towel animal for you. Someone else is making a variety bag for him/her and they store that bag under your bed and pull out one a day.
Everybody thinks they made that for you with your towel while you were gone.
