Our New Home

Alright, I'm sure everyone is just dying to see how life has been in St. Thomas. (Or maybe I'm just dying to share with everyone?) anyways, it has been SO different from Grand Cayman in so many ways! Our first reaction to landing here in St. T was, "Whoa, mountains!" We have missed the mountains so much! Growing up in Utah Dan and I grew so  accustomed to them. I grew up hiking, biking, and just all around enjoying the beauty of them! Then, we move to somewhere with not even the slightest hill to walk up! Needless to say, I missed the mountains. So now we get to St. Thomas and we have mountains again! It's the best of both worlds, mountains AND the ocean!
Our place is so beautiful! It's at the very top of the far north mountains so it has such an amazing view! It's pretty spacious with a guest room for visitors so if anyone is looking for a place to stay, we've got your back!
I'm so sad to say that though we have been here for three weeks we have only been to the beach once and for just a couple hours. We have been working our tails off to get this store up and running! Not only did we have to make a store out of an empty room, but we had to go through TONS of product. The previous store was ruined in the hurricane so they had to move buildings. The old place was very big so it had tons of product. Here in the new place, its about half the size and we have had to try to fit the same amount of product in such a smaller space. So its been hard. Lot's of late nights, and any free time is still spent at work trying to get things organized, counted, and other stuff needed to get the store in order. So, we were not expecting to be working this hard for this long so its been difficult to be able to go to the beach. But once it's done, we will be basking in the sun any second we get!
We have been told of a few fun things we need to do while we are here. If anybody else has been to St. Thomas or any of the other surrounding islands, comment some suggestions! We are open to anything!
Hope everyone has the best rest of the day! Thanks for following along with our journey!
