Happenings on STJ

Good day, today. We were talking on the porch. I mentioned to Bob that I thought we should think about selling the rental house. Funny, he says, I was just thinking the same. Met with a realtor yesterday. now we will meet with the tenants on Sunday and let them know our intentions. Hopefully, they will stay in the house. Could be a year or more before it sells. Stopped by to see a friend at her little shop in Coral Bay about getting my hair cut and to give her a piece of driftwood from the beach for her art work. She had 3 pair of shoes, her old ones, that she said she would give to the first person who came up to the shop. luckily, they were my size. I took two pair. Bob got a call today from someone here on the East End about concrete polishing the deck. Went to look and talk on the way in to town, but looks like he will have to use some other method. It's just not viable for polishing and the concrete and house are very old. Hope he gets the job. He'll put down a topping which will make the old concrete look great. These people have been here since the '70's and they own 4 rental houses here on St. John. Very nice people.

Marilynn, hope the MI trip was great. Looks like on the national weather that the leaves are changing in the UP. Send some pics.

Herb, I think the computer is fine now. Bob installed an anti spyware program the other day and now it quarantines all the emails and lets us look and decide who we "let in". Strange, we got an email from Nathan saying he had been taking the ACAI slim pill for the last 2 weeks and had lost 21 pounds. You can imagine the email I sent him as to caution. He wrote back and told us he didn't send it, that it was SPAM. How did that get in if we had the spyware on there?

Have to go. Dinner is calling the chef.

Ron is coming back on island today. He hasn't been here since Feb. Says he is going to put the roof on the pool house.

Looking forward to the MI and OH visits.

love,
