From Alaska to the U.S. Virgin Islands, today is President's Day. Regardless of your politics, the day is theirs. President's Day. A day to honor those men who have been daring enough to believe they could make a difference in this great country. They make unbelievable sacrifices as do their families, in support of them. All have their less than glorious moments during their terms, at some point. Together their legacies shape our future.

Wednesday was open house day on St. Thomas. There were two homes open in Peterborg . Peterborg is a neighborhood on the North side of St. Thomas. The neighborhood is on the peninsula that helps to create world famous Magen's Bay.
Both homes are located on the Atlantic side of the peninsula of Peterborg. This side of Peterborg tends to be cooler. The breezes coming in off the deeper, cooler, Atlantic water and are naturally more comfortable. The homes on the bay side tend to be a little warmer and require more air conditioning.
