Delayed 7hr at SFO (AA to MIA - should listen to my own advice) - arrived 4am instead of 9pm - so much for not taking red-eye. Upside: plane was half-empty, pilots had petal to the metal, fastest landing ever! We were flying! Got Exit row. We hadn't back out from the gate - so they deplaned us quickly before getting new plane otherwise we would have been stuck on plane for hours.
Anyway... rental car was waiting at STT (4dr Wrangler XL) - Amalie has best vehicles. Unfortunately they sold their business, but assured me that new owners would keep their business model (new cars - sell after 1 year of use) - hopefully true.
Car barge worked great again - very little traffic to RedHook - $30 one way.
Everything pretty much the same up here on The Hill. Siding and Roofing looks great.
Pool and Patio been resurfaced, new BBQ area, ramp for wheelchairs - new lighting, and umbrella made for heavy weather. Waterfall re-tiled.
Landscaped - and foliage cutback. I hear that helps reduce mosquitoes.
Big tree next to our villa is gone - was great shade, now balcony exposed - improved view, but prefer the natural coverage. Not sure if it was cut - or came down during storm (maybe a bit of both). Oh well...
They put soft pads on the DR chairs - great solution for scraping of chairs against tile floors.
Everything is in order - a bit worn, but still liking the remodel for the most part. Of course - this is StJ afterall (shower curtain too short - drives Robin crazy.
