We already spent a week on Tortola in the British Virgin Islands for our 25th anniversary. I'll spend a week in Buffalo in August for a wedding and a week in D.C. in September for a company trip. Was in Buffalo in January, and Hawaii in February. Damn, I logged some miles this year.

Pittsburgh last weekend, Amherst at some point later this week, and I'll be back out at Chautauqua Friday morning. Probably back up to Buffalo for the Fourth, and that will just about do it before I go back to work.

 

Figuring on two or more road games this season, too.

I hate Hawaii, at least the only two times I've been. We've stayed a big resorts with our company. Too many kids. I'll take the Caribbean over Hawaii anytime even if it is a pain to get to from the west coast.

I went because the wife wanted to - close from the W Coast - I also have seen what I wanted - Pearl Harbor and Volcano National Park :D

 

No reason to ever go back - Honolulu = LA

Of course! Have a bottle of their rum in my liquor cabinet now. Also Corsairs and some bar on some beach (it was a long day) that has an honor bar thirty feet from the water. You make your own drink and pay what you feel is right. Poured myself the strongest $5 rum and coke ever.

How did you like Tortola ? Did you go scuba diving or fishing ?

Heading 13 hours north to fish for walleye with my dad on July 4th for a week. No phones, computers, electricity or people! Nothing but beer, cigars, fishing and relaxation. We are in the Julien cabin.

Looks great. Reminds me of my grandfather's island on Lake Nippissing. Here, saving the nickels and dimes to go to Paris in Sept.

Really??? Everybody, I have talked to that has went to Hawaii said there is no other place in the world like it. I wanted to go there last year, but the wife wanted to go back to Aruba. So of course we went to Aruba.

Sounds like you went to Ivan's for the honor bar.

 

I love going to the Caribbean, and Jost Van Dyke is a must stop "party" stop.

 

One of my best memories is going to Foxy's for the year 2000 to bring in the new millenium.

 

Being an outdoor enthusiast, I usually stay here as my jumping off point:

 

Maho Bay

 

which is on St. John's. It is a cheap place to stay, is eco friendly, and I love just being in a casual place that meshes with the environment.

 

Check out the link, you actually stay in these tent cottages built into the side of hills, very close to the water.
