Anonymous said...: Great people. June runs a second hand store in Red Hook now and Steve still daysails...they also built a villa above Red Hook that they rent out.; August 22, 2008
Gabrielle Thompson said...: June just "retired" and sold the store, whereas Steve sold Nightwind years back (and she is still doing daysails!) They own Treetops in Red Hook, a wonderful villa you can rent, as well as Beachtops at Cowpet Beach for rentals. Both are fabulous. We stayed with them with our stateside friends at Treetops for 10 days for our daughter's wedding in May and she and her fiance and friends stayed at Beachtops.; January 09, 2013

St Thomas - St John, U.S. Virgin Islands ~ Remembering All-Ah-Wee

Recalling the many people in the 70's and 80's, up to the mid - 90's who gave Red Hook and The East End the character it had (including some from downtown and St. John).

Why "mid-90's" ? Hurricane Marilyn in 1995 changed our work and play patterns, our lives and energies. As one person expressed it, Hurricane Hugo in '89 was an adventure; Marilyn was a royal P-I-T-A.

Some long time island residents left after '95, plus rebuilding and development, forever changed the simplicity and laid back character of Red Hook we reveled and thrived in.

Many though are still sailin', lymin', workin', drinkin' and dancing on as we speak . . . in St Thomas-St John-BVI's, down island or wherever they may be.
