Gone Fishing…

I’ve had many people write in and ask what’s happening with the blog?

I’m taking a break.

break

I’ve been writing on it for 7 years my creative juices need to be revitalized  How many times can one write about WAPA or the Government?

I’ll get back on it when the time is right and I can deliver the types of stories you all like. Until then feel free to comment on any past stories.

Thanks for reading and I’ll be back soon :)

Marina Market Closed?

Rumor has it that Marina Market in Red Hook has closed? I’m guessing WAPA is the culprit but if anyone has any info please comment in.

Tempur-Pedic Knowledge at Island Empire!

At Island Empire they LOVE talking Tempur-Pedic!

But they don’t just talk about them, they all own one and they know there really is a Tempur-Pedic for Every Body!

So what’s the big deal?

That Unique TEMPUR Feel-

You’ll feel it the minute you lay down: the unique way TEMPUR® material responds to the curves and weight of your body, actually adjusting to give you custom comfort and support.

No more tossing & turning-

TEMPUR® material reduces pressure points that can cause you to toss and turn, so you sleep more comfortably.

Customized support and comfort-

TEMPUR® material responds to your body temperature and weight, so you get the exact support and comfort your body needs.

Promotes proper alignment-

TEMPUR® material adapts to your curves to support you evenly, so you’re positioned to sleep more soundly.

Undisturbed sleep-

TEMPUR® material absorbs motion, so your sleep partner’s movement is less likely to wake you.

Resistant to dust mites & allergens-

TEMPUR® material also resists mold, mildew and other irritants that can trigger allergies and asthma, so you sleep worry-free.

No flipping or rotating-

TEMPUR® material returns to its original shape night after night, year after year, so your mattress feels like new every day.

Do Tempur-Pedic mattresses sleep Hot?

In independent lab testing TEMPUR-Contour and TEMPUR-Cloud Collection mattresses slept cooler than gel foam mattresses.

So you think you can’t afford one?

Simplicity is available in firm, medium and soft.

So what about the pillows?

Choose from Ergonomically Contoured Pillows…

Or Filled Comfort Pillows.

No matter which style you choose, Tempur-Pedic Pillows will help you experience your best nights sleep ever!

Get into Island Empire and check out Tempur-Pedic! The well-rested staff there is so excited to talk about Tempur-Pedic because they have all experienced firsthand what these mattresses can do for you.

Stop in at one of their two locations today and experience Tempur-Pedic comfort for yourself!

Travel & Leisure Readers Love the VI!

Well, three of our beaches, anyways :)

Beautiful, calm, long, sandy Magens Bay on St. Thomas was ranked 5th by families, “…Glassy waters make this almost-mile-long Caribbean beach a carefree spot for swimming, snorkeling, and setting sail in the small boats that are available for rent along the shore. No wonder readers considered it the fifth most family-friendly beach…”: 

Raise your hand if you have this picture – amazing Trunk Bay on St. John, ranked 2nd for Wildlife Viewing, “…Located within the Virgin Islands National Park, Trunk Bay, the No. 2–ranked beach for wildlife viewing, is famous both for its marine life—an underwater snorkeling trail has signs to identify coral, sea urchins, and other fish—and the surrounding 7,000 acres of protected jungle…”:

I’ve been to St. Croix, but did not make it to this beach, Turtle Beach, “…The offshore reefs on Buck Island, less than two miles north of St. Croix, get most of the attention, which means that the long, forest-lined beaches like this one, rated No. 4 for seclusion, are often empty…”:

I have to imagine these sunny pictures are looking pretty good to those of you up North right about now. For more info click here, and to see the rest of the best beaches in the world click here.
