I wanted to share an email from a woman who lived here during what some might call “St. Croix’s Hey-Day”. It made me, once again, thankful for this island, no matter how mad I might get at it sometimes. It made me realize how far we have come, yet somehow, been able to remain the same. How does that work? Anyway, here is an excerpt she has allowed me to share with all of you:
Anna,
I am a nurse living in California who lived on island in 1984-85 and recently returned as a tourist to visit. I used your blog and website as a primary source of info and had a great but oh too short visit. I was so glad to see the island has changed not too much and the environmental protection and respect seems true. I stayed @ Tamarind Reef for the nostalgia -used to live in marina and work @ the Deep End. That view is so wonderful.
Thanks Susan B for your letter, I am sure there are many people who feel the same as you, and many more who are waiting and planning to experience it for them selves.
I was impressed with your knowlege of st.croix. I`ve been to all the usvi I found st.thomas to be to much of a hussle St.Johns

ssi income.I`m wondering if it`s even possable. I`m recently devorsed and would
really like to live out the rest of my days in paridise!!! thanks for advice glenn
