tips JoAnne: I did the same thing for a month trip to Naples, I brought several tops that I could wear 2 times and then toss. The rule is.. You pack it, you carry it. You pack it, you wear it. I usually do black,khahi,and maybe blue for bottoms, and color on top. Into comfort.. wore sneakers most of the time for all the walking. Marilyn
Canouan Villas Hi there,
Fantastic to see another visitors reviews on this beautiful little island!
Just a quick question, the photos in your collection show a fantastic villa and we just wondered whether it was one of the villas we rent in Canouan? It looks very similar to Canoten (http://www.handpickedvillas.net/canoten/view-details) and would be nice to know if these great reviews match one of our properties!
All the best and keep up the good work!

Sailing scows of a flat bottom hard chine. I love these hard chine sailing scows. I built one 15'9" x 5'. Sides were 2x10's edge doweled 21" high, bottom was 1" cedar. It was based on a San Franciso scow schooner design. There where no plans. Heavily built it would reach 5 knots in 15 knot wind on a reach with 125 sq. feet of sail ( it would have taken 150 sq. ft easily). It loved it on Brest Bay in 2 foot seas. Got caught one late afternoon and evening in 4 foot seas out of the Northeast. A bit of a job tacking back to Sandy Creek from the River Raisen. Took about three hours. It rotted finally parked near the trees. I kept the anchorfast nails, after I cut "Woodenshoe " up and burned her. Would like to build another, but getting old now. I still have my photos though. By the way the scow didn't pound any worse than a pointed bow, only catching a bad wave once in a while.
have some nice pictures for joe,with his t-shirts in our snackbar in germany.
pls be so kind to give his e-mail adress, on our above standing adress.
the adress he gave me on his boat was incorrect
thank you rob veldhuisen
So Sorry Don't Have Contact Info Hello - I am so sorry, while I loved getting the picture of the pontoon boat turned snack bar, I never did get an e-mail or contact address for the owner.

Joe's comes up to the beach in Captiva near the Mucky Duck Hope you find Joey's - when the Mucky Duck isn't open - like between lunch and dinner - Joey comes along the beach in front of it and beaches the pontoon boat to sell us hot dogs, water, etc. Very cool!
Amazing Experienced you have South Beach is very beautiful and stunning from all the beaches I've been. I believed you renting a condo unit, nice choice. You save a lot from there than in a hotel. For your next trip try San Francisco, Las Vegas and Hawaii there are available vacation rentals also in these area where you can save your budget. Last time I was with HelloRelaxation, their units are mostly near beaches.
For the next adventure, enjoy:)

Brooks Robinson I really liked your picture of the Norman Rockwell “Thanks Brooks”. Brooks is a great person and ballplayer. Brooks was ambidextrous and did most things left handed; oh, except when it came to baseball where he threw and batted right-handed.
By the way…you travel in a 34” Motor Home?!?
Thanks for the great photo and fond memory of Brooks.
Regards,
Mark
