Ram’s Head

Ram’s Head St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands
This photo was taken from Skytop, a neighborhood above Fish Bay on the south shore of St. John.  One thing we have plenty of is spectacular views.  The 3 rules of real estate on St. John are: the view, the view, the view!

Rain

Â
May 17, 2010 St. John U.S. Virgin Islands
Today it is raining.  Good for us locals - filling our near empty cisterns, greening up the landscape and sending the tourists to our shops and cafes.  The beaches need a rest every now and then.   Let it rain.

Are you a morning person??

Well who wants to jump out of bed in the morning when there is snow in the forcast? Or perhaps your radio alarm clock goes off every morning so you can listen to the traffic reports to know if you need to leave a few minutes early to go to work. That doesn’t sound like any fun! […]

Island dogs??

They are not your typical island dogs but they are MY island dogs and they love it here! I tried to explain to them about snow and they think it’s something you eat, similar to steak………you gotta love them!  And I do and it’s nice to meet so many people vacationing here who give my […]

A Busy Week For Realtors

It has been a busy week on St. John with a lot of buyers looking at property.   After looking at 12 houses in one day one of my customers looked a bit like like the guy above - kind of dazed and confused.

CORAL BAY TRAFFIC JAM

Our four footed friends slowed traffic for  while recently in down town Coral Bay.  If you have to have a traffic jam this is the kind to have.

Coral Bay, St. John U.S. Virgin Islands circa 1955

Â
This is what Coral Bay looked like 55 years ago.  Not much going on.  Just a quiet little place, home to only a few.
And here is what it looks like today.  Busier, yes but I still love it.  That’s why I live there.  Coral Bay has withstood  55 years of development, most of it in […]

New arrival in Coral Bay

Â
Everyone has been asking if I’ve seen the new baby donkey out in Coral Bay.  I was out and about on Wednesday and as usual the donkeys were all over the road along with the new gray baby. Isn’t he (or she) cute! If we could just get them to stop eating the flowers!

Winter Wonderland…

 Your winter…

Our winter…

 So what are you waiting for!   See you on the beach…

They’re banging down the door at Islandia??!!

Â
Not exactly but there was some banging at our door. On a closer look, I think he saw his own reflection in the door and was trying to get to the other iguana! Or maybe he could feel a little air conditioning from under the door (it was a hot one this afternoon!) and wanted to […]
