I have been off work for over 2 weeks now - it feels like the longest 2 weeks of my life. I went to water island, a tiny island off of st. thomas, to check out where my dad lived for 5 yrs (my uncle lived there for 8). the island was completely remote, we drove golf carts to get around, and there was no grocery store or restaurants (besides one pizza place and a food cart with burgers called “Heidi’s”). we had to take a tug boat type ferry over to st. thomas just to get food. i snorkeled, paddled and swam until i was sore. the clear water and fresh air was just what the doctor ordered. im ready to kick off 2012.
