Flying to St Croix Via Miami

 

8 am at our condo in Christiansted - St Croix.
It is already 80 degrees. 


Lulu was planning a cruise out of Miami that would circle the Caribbean. The problem was that flights from Tallahassee to Miami were $800 per round trip! Spring break is a busy time in Miami. We decided to stay home.

Next day - Cheap Flight sent here an email - fly to St Croix in the US Virgin Islands for $240 round trip. The price was good but the kicker was it went thru Miami! We booked it. 

Then she found a condo on the beach in St Croix for $150 a night.  A Toyota Yaris rental car on Avis for $200 a week wrapped up spending. 

We are about to board this plane.

Electric Trike Rickshaw - Product Review

Image
  Sixthreezero.com Capacity 500 pounds Last week we sold our Vespa 150 Scooter. We replaced it with this electric powered trike. They don't have a lot in common other than Lulu and I can go to sporting events on either one.  This electric trike was made by SIXTHREEZERO.COM. They sell a long line of electric bikes - trikes - and scooters. The company is based in California - but it appears the trikes are made in China and assembled in California. I also helped a bit - it comes packed nicely - but the handlebars - fenders - seats - pedals - and computer are easily assembled at home. The trike was compacted nicely in a 150 pound box. The delivery person brought it up the driveway in a hand truck - and dumped it in my garage. It took about one hour to unpack everything - then another hour to assemble it. It requires a couple screwdrivers and a couple wrenches. The foam packing prevent any parts from being damaged during shipping.  NUMBERS It is supposed to go about 50 miles - with a to

Review of GE Profile Washer-Dryer Combo - After 10 Days

Image
GE Profile Washer-Dryer Combo We recently replaced our standard stackable LG Washer and Dryer. We have them for about 10 years. I was eager to try a washer dry combo. Lulu was happy to just keep our old units. I consider myself an early adapter or adopter. I always like to get the latest and greatest tools and technology. Lulu tends to pacify me. She gets attached to items and likes to keep them around a long time. I always buy something with an out. In this case I have 90 days to try the new combo. If I get buyer's remorse they go back to the store. Most big box stores are good at return policies. Just keep your receipt and packing.  First off - the new Combo costs $2100. The price included delivery and set up. I never used to buy the extra warranty - but I am soft in my old age - I paid $250 for a 5 year cover everything warranty. I sold our old washer and dryer set for $800.  If I have to list a negative - the unit weighs 300 pounds. I would not want to try to lift this myself.

Electric Trike Rickshaw

Image
  Today I ordered an electric trike. It is designed to haul 500 pounds or 4 people. It has 3disk brakes - electric motor - font wheel drive - lithium battery.  It can go 20 mph for 50 miles. It takes 3 hours to charge.  It requires no license to drive - no license plate - no insurance.  It is my next step from Vespa to trike to walker.
