Gilligan's Island
653 Fans
Gilligan's Island centered around seven people stranded on an uncharted deserted island somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. They all were on a boat tour, which found itself in the middle of a storm leading them to crash on an island! Main cast was Gilligan, first mate on the boat SS Minnow; the Skipper; a millionaire T.Howell III and his wife Lovey; a movie star Ginger; a professor and Mary Ann.
Trivia Facts | Top Quotes | Goofs/Mistakes
- Jayne Mansfield turned down the role of Ginger; 'Carroll OConnor tested for the role of The Skipper; Dabney Coleman tested for the role of The Professor.
- Raquel Welch auditioned for the role of Mary Anne.
- Jerry Van Dyke turned down the role of Gilligan.
- The first season had the cast using cups that were made from real coconuts. However, they found that the cups were porous and soaked through like they were sweating. Thus in the later seasons, the coconut cups were ceramic replicas.
- Natalie Schafer's contract stipulated that there be no close-ups of her in the show. The reason was producers knew her real age, which was 13 years older than Jim Backus, who played her character's husband. It was not until years after the series ended that her co-stars found out her actual age.
- The show was originally slated to return for the 1967-68 television season but cancelled at the last minute by CBS head William Paley, to make room for the long-running Gunsmoke.
- The three-man folk singing group The Wellingtons sang the theme song for the first season, but were replaced by a similar sounding group, The Eligibles, for the following seasons. The Wellingtons (plus one) also portrayed 'The Mosquitoes' in a classic episode of the series: "Gilligan's Island" (1964) {Don't Bug the Mosquitoes (#2.12)}.
- In the very first shot of the opening credits, the American flag over the harbor can be seen flying at half-mast. The reason was the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, shortly before the shot was filmed.
- Ferdinand Marcos and Imelda Marcos once seriously considered buying this island as a retreat, but the sale never took place.
- The character of the Professor was supposedly a graduate from SMU, TCU and UCLA,
- In the first-season credits, Russell Johnson and Dawn Wells were relegated to being simply "the rest". That changed in the second season when Bob Denver demanded that they be given an equal share in the credits, thus changing the lyrics to "The Professor and Mary Ann". Sherwood Schwartz, who composed both themes, has said it didn't occur to him the Professor and Mary Ann would turn into prominent characters.
- The lagoon set was located at the CBS lot in Studio City, CA. If sequences there were filmed too early or too late in the day, microphones would record rush hour traffic noise from a nearby freeway.
- Phil Silvers was cast as a producer in an episode partly because his production company was actually producing the show.
- As the show progressed, producers planned to introduce a new character - a pet dinosaur - but decided against it because of the cost of special effects. The character, however, was incorporated into the animated Gilligan's Planet.
- The premise required that the characters use various devices that had to be constructed from only the various materials found on a tropical island. Thus the props had to be specially made and the prop department enjoyed the challenge which was a change of pace from simply bringing in the standard props from storage. The bamboo foot pedal-powered car used in one episode was a particular favorite with the cast queuing up to try it out.
- It is revealed in "Gilligan's Island" (1964) {Two on a Raft (#1.1)}, (the second pilot) that the name of Mary-Ann's hometown was Winfield, Kansas. It is sometimes misreported as Horner's Corners, but that was the home of her boyfriend, Horace Higgenbotham.
- The ship's name, S. S. Minnow, was not named for the fish but rather for Newton Minow, head of the Federal Communications Commission in 1961. Minow was the one who called television "America's vast wasteland". Sherwood Schwartz did not care for Minow so he named the soon-to-be shipwrecked ship after him, though he later said that Minow actually enjoyed the joke and that the two eventually exchanged regular friendly correspondence.
- "The radio" seen in virtually every episode was a Packard-Bell AM Radio, Model AR-851. The small silver handle and telescoping antenna were added by the prop department (despite the fact that AM radios do not use telescoping antennas). The antenna was likely added to lend credence to the castaways' ability to pick up radio signals so far from civilization.
- Alan Hale Jr. was on location in Utah filming a movie when he got a call to come back to Los Angeles to do a screen test for "Gilligan's Island". Hale rode a horse to the highway, hitchhiked to Las Vegas and flew to L.A. to test with Bob Denver.
- The island shown in the opening and closing credits is actually located in Kaneohe Bay, about a mile offshore from the island of Oahu, in Hawaii.
- Sherwood Schwartz said he had a first name for Gilligan if the need to use it ever arose: Willie. This name is never spoken on screen, so it seems as if Gilligan only has one name as with celebrities such as Homer or Cher.
- The lagoon set was the same one used to make Creature from the Black Lagoon.
- In the backstory, The Professor had taken the three-hour tour to relax before he began writing a book, "Fun with Ferns".
- Partly inspired by the 1939 film Five Came Back (1939) starring Lucille Ball. The characters in that film included a wayward pilot and co-pilot, a botanist and his wife, a sultry woman with a shady past, and a rich playboy and his homespun wife.
- The song playing on Gilligan's radio is called "Coconut Boogie", performed by Jim Shipman and the Shipwrecks.
- Four vessels were used as the SS Minnow. One was towed to Kauai, Hawaii for beach scenes, one was rented in Honolulu for the original opening credits, and one was built at CBS Studios in the second season. The fourth one was used in the second-season opening credits. A subsequent owner was sailing it south from Alaska when it ran aground on a reef off the coast of British Columbia. It was purchased for salvage and restored. It was offered for sale in B.C. for $99,000. It was listed as a 37-foot twin-diesel, mahogany Wheeler Express Cruiser which sleeps five.
- ''Weird Al Yankovic has written two songs about Gilligan's Island. The first is a parody of "Wild Thing" called "Isle Thing" where a guy dates a girl who is obsessed with "Gilligan's Island". The second is a concert only song called "I'm In Love With The Skipper" which is sung from Gilligan's point of view about Gilligan really being in love with the Skipper. During the song he shows clips from the show that actually seem to prove the song to be true. He also sings part of the theme song in his song "Amish Paradise" and mentions watching the show in "Stop Draggin' My Car Around" and "Couch Potato."
- The name "Ginger Grant" is believed to be taken from two stars of Hollywood's "Golden Era", Ginger Rogers and Cary Grant; the latter is frequently spoken of in this series. "Ginger" is a nickname in many places (including England) for someone with red hair.
- Jim Backus's name of Thurston Howell III was named after 'Hubart Updyke III'.
- Alan Hale Jr. had a tendency to address people as "little buddy". Because of this, "little buddy" became the Skipper's signature term of affection for Gilligan. It is now widely used by fans as a nickname for Bob Denver.

Softhackle Heaven
Reviewer: Kirk Barnes from SE Texas
I have bought these in Black, Ginger, Brown Speckled and Grey speckled. When I use them up, I will be buying more.
Patches are approximately 5"x 8", and have probably 200-250 feathers on them. (I am not going to count them to see, lol)
The colors are well dyed where appropriate. I have had no problems wrapping them on the hooks.
Bottom line, I recommend these for soft feathers.

Great Hackle
Reviewer: A viewer from NEW BRAUNFELS, TX USA
This is very good hackle and a very good price for the amount of feathers and various sizes you get. I really like the speckled brown and gray. I have used both instead of partridge and both look fine, and looks good in the water. Great value.

Great for legs and wet flies
Reviewer: A viewer from FORT COLLINS, CO USA
I have this speckled brown and use it for legs on nymphs and wet fly hackle. Patch is a little small, but great to use. Feathers are decent quality, not overly large. Will be getting more when needed.
Love the mottled color in olive
Reviewer: A viewer from MD Suburbs
The photo of the olive color posted on this site is a solid color. I took a chance and ordered these to find the color is mottled like the other photos shown.
I bought these to use as legs on nymphs and didn't want to spend the extra cash to get another partridge skin. I'm very happy with these feathers! Exactly what I wanted!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by 7 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Betises They all seem to like this! I have four finicky felines, each of whom likes variety, to boot. But they all seem to enjoy this turkey recipe. I'm hoping it lasts! May 14, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by MKP1 New Product Science diet is phasing out some of it's wet food, and we switched to the Ideal Balance for our kitties, and they loved it! May 7, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by Clarka Cats Love it! Have never been a big fan of "stew like" cat food, but this has changed my mind. I actually ordered it by mistake, so I decided to try it. My cats eat every bite of this food. Usually, they leave some of the regular can food, but not this. Although this is a little pricey, I am going to buy it again. My 2 boys are 7 now, so if they are eating all of it.....the price is worth it. August 13, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by JNece My Cats Love it! I've been giving my cats Hill's ideal Balance for years now and they are huge fans! I changed to the turkey flavor recently for two reasons, it cost a little less and both my cats happen to love turkey. Aside from the price being great, the quality of this food is excellent. It is very much worth it to use auto ship for this product. They seem very happy with this so far and I am happy too because I know they are healthy. Thanks Chewy and Hill's!!! April 30, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by anton13 Great Pick for Fussy Eaters Hills came out with a winner this time. Having fussy cats is always a problem at dinnertime. The cats eat every morsel and am happy to have found a brand they always are eager to eat. Tired of wasting money on food they become bored with .Not the case here.Bravo Hills! August 18, 2013

World Cup: Portugal player's headbutt a gift to the US
The U.S. just got a gift from Portugal.
In in its opening match of the World Cup group stages on Monday, Portugal central defender Pepe lost his mind and headbutted Germany's Thomas Muller.
Pepe (pronounced Peh-pay, not pee pee) was sent off with the red card, meaning he's forced to miss Portugal's next match against the U.S. on Sunday. That's no small deal for the Portuguese or the Americans.
In case you didn't know, Pepe's kinda known for this stuff.
Pepe's been classified as a thug of sorts for his hockey enforcer-like play for Real Madrid, but it's no coincidence that he's been a regular starter for one of the best club teams in the world. Pepe is a quality defender – an asset for club and country – one that will be missing against a U.S. team that hasn't exactly been the San Antonio Spurs of world soccer with its scoring.
Who does this help the most? Without Pepe's bruising presence in the back line for Portugal, expect U.S. forward Jozy Altidore to be licking his chops. Much is expected of Altidore, 24, who has the speed and physicality to give the Portugal defense some problems. He's also coming off two goals in the U.S.'s final warm up game against Nigeria on June 7, so he shouldn't be short on confidence.
Pepe's red card opened the flood gates for Germany, which went on to an easy 4-0 win. In the process, Portugal also lost starting left back Fabio Coentrao to injury and had its goal differential shredded. It all adds up to an ideal situation for the U.S., which was doubtful to even make it out of the group stage.
Considering the group, Portugal can still go through but it will be very tough against the USA with both Pepe and Coentrao out. #GERPOR

From the outside I really thought this salon would be very expensive & way out of my price range. - I was VERY WRONG! Overall one of the best salons I have ever been too. friendly staff, competitive prices(cheaper than other places in k hill)- I made an app to have some shellac nails removed had them done at home and the woman had really made a pigs ear of them- NOT happy!!
The lovely girls at Amelia's sorted me out and the therapist was calm, relaxed and very concentrated on my hands - not her mobile phone or other clients. I felt very peaceful in the environment and after the nail tech got my hands looking NORMAL again, I booked in straight away for loads more treatments! I am a regular client now and will never go elsewhere.
Well done ladies, you make my ME time v special.

Waterlemon Villa - It's All About the View! House
min stay
Located 700 feet above sea level in Coral Bay, St.John, Waterlemon Villa is a 3- bedroom, 3-bath luxury vacation rental with absolutely breath-taking views of the Coral Bay Harbor, Tortola and the Sir Francis Drake Channel. Our private pool and large screened-in porch face the 50 - mile view so you can watch the color of the water change during the day & enjoy the twinkling lights of Tortola or the stars of the Caribbean sky at night. Casually elegant furnishings and a gourmet kitchen provide this St.John vacation villa with all the elements of a relaxing and indulgent vacation.
Two queen bedrooms and one twin bedroom accommodate up to six people so it is ideal for three couples or a family, but the privacy of the location and pool make it just as enticing for a honeymoon couple or an anniversary trip!
The house is equipped for gourmet cooking with Cuisinart pots and pans, good knives, extensive cooking utensils, a microwave, and, of course, a blender and a margarita set! (This is a vacation home, after all). There is a Weber gas grill and plenty of non-breakable dishes and glasses if you wish to eat poolside under the sun umbrella. The wrought iron table on the upper screened-in porch is an ideal place to eat and enjoy the view.
There are multiple outdoor options for relaxing at Waterlemon Villa, from chaise lounges at the pool, to wicker chairs on the lower level porch, to the wicker set on the upstairs screened-in porch. The comfortable wicker furniture in the great room is a terrific place for watching TV or a movie or just listening to the stereo.
Coral Bay restaurants are five minutes from the house, and the outstanding snorkeling beaches of Salt Pond Bay and Leinster Bay are a scenic 10-15 minute drive. Put the beach chairs and the cooler in the car, grab the towels and spend the day exploring. The natural beauty of St. John awaits you!
Coral Bay and Waterlemon Villa are an easy 20-25 minute drive east from the ferry dock in Cruz Bay. Come and visit, paradise is calling...TripAdvisor property ID 2771805 ...Read more

"Spectacular sunrises, sunsets with a fabulous view! Doesn't get"
This was our first trip to the Virgin Islands. We chose St. John and Waterlemon Villa! When we arrived at Waterlemon Villa, we were all blown away by the view; it was exactly what the pictures show. It didn't matter where you stood or where you sat, there was always a phenomenal view. The villa itself was beautiful! It had a very fresh and Caribbean feel to it - exactly what you would expect to find. The colors of blue that are used to accessorize the villa blend into the colors of the sky and the water. The kitchen was well furnished - we love to cook and were very pleased with all the cooking utensils and cookware. There was also a grill that we used - with a great view of course. The bedrooms were beautifully furnished, and bathrooms had hair dryers, plush towels, and the outdoor showers were amazing! The pool and pool area were also beautiful - again the view while in the pool was amazing! The drive up and down the mountain was always fun and somewhat of an adventure. The owner of the villa is a wonderful individual and great to work with as was the management company. If you are looking for a beautiful view and a beautiful house - this is the place for you! Oh, and the snorkeling...Fabulous!

"World-class view, totally comfortable house"
Waterlemon Villa is a wonderful base of operations for visitors to Saint John. The house is clean and well kept; the kitchen is fully-equipped for meal making; the beds are super comfortable; and even the showers have fantastic views.
The house is located in Coral Bay, which is on the quieter side of the island. That's not a disadvantage--there were plenty of markets and restaurants right nearby, access to Northshore beaches was easy, and we absolutely preferred Coral Bay to the busier/more hectic Cruz Bay.
We didn't have any problems with our stay, and our few questions were promptly answered by the property manager.
The only two downsides to staying at Waterlemon Villa? The 'side street' leading to the house was terrifyingly steep, although that's typical of driving in St. John. The other downside was that the views are so amazing, and the screened-in top deck so comfortable, that some days it was hard to leave the house to explore the rest of the island!
But seriously, don't miss exploring the rest of the island -- St. John is a wonderful destination, and it's hard to beat Waterlemon Villa for a place to call home during your stay.

"What a view!!!"
We had a wonderful time in St. John, and Waterlemon Villa was a nice place to call home while we were there. A very pleasant place to stay, great kitchen, nice gas grill that has been well maintained. Marc, the house caretaker was very responsive when we needed him, and helped us out when we arrived. Ellen, the owner was very nice and helpful prior to, and while we were there. The view, and the porch area off the house is such a great part of the experience. I would recommend Waterlemon Villa to friends and family.

"A spectacular view! The one you dream about!"
Waterlemon Villa is, truly, "all about the view!" I continue to picture beautiful Coral Bay as I fall asleep at night. As for the Waterlemon (not Watermelon!!) Villa itself, it falls just short of spectacular. It is a lovely, very comfortable place to hang your...bathing suit...for a week or more.
We were prepared to face a daunting drive to/from the house, but it was amazingly easy after the first "run." With everything you've ever wanted in a vacation home, there were few reasons to leave the Villa. (I must admit that we went out every night for wonderful dinners, especially at aqua Bistro, as that is part of our "vacation.") Breakfasts and/or lunch were enjoyed indoors at the roomy kitchen table. The living room is comfy with sofa and chairs. I especially liked retiring to the (master) bedroom downstairs with its very comfortable bed. And there's a nice sitting area (with a view, of course) through the sliding glass doors. The ceiling fans are more than adequate to cool even in late May.I never even thought about air conditioning.
I'd give Waterlemon a "thumbs up" in every regard. But the view is numero uno in my opinion!

"Our Experience in Shangri-la"
Tony Bennett may have left his heart in San Francisco, but mine is definitely still in St. John. And more specifically at Waterlemon Villa. It was our first visit to the islands and Ellen's, the owner, information before we arrived was invaluable. A word of advice, whatever Ellen suggests, follow it and you will save valuable time for enjoying the fun that awaits. She was always quick and pleasant in answering my many questions. The views from Waterlemon cannot be described, they must be experienced. The home truly felt like home upon arrival. Beautiful accommodations but homey and comfortable at the same time. The porches were wonderful for morning coffee and evening dinners outside. And the guys especially enjoyed the outside showers overlooking the bay. It exceeded our expectations. And in the words of my 27 yr. old son, the house was "awesome". Seawatch, our favorite local bar was not far and great for happy hour appetizers. Also, just down the hill were Lily's grocery and a lovely restaurant called aqua Bistro. Very convenient. I found everyone we met fascinating, friendly and happy to share a story or two. Coral Bay is peaceful with much to offer in picturesque bays, beaches and snorkeling. A day trip to Cruz Bay for shopping and beach bar hopping was fun, but back to Coral Bay for exquisite sunsets and star gazing. Driving was an adventure as you dodged donkeys, goats and even a mongoose here and there. I found myself smiling for a week. Sitting by the pool at Waterlemon and looking out over Coral Bay was surreal. I can still see it in my dreams and all I can say to you is go!

"What an escape!"
Waterlemon Villa was a wonderful home base for our stay on St. John. The days were filled with beach excursions, exploring the island, shopping in Cruz Bay and simply enjoying the wonderful island of St. John. The afternoons and evenings were filled with unforgettable family time at Waterlemon Villa. The Villa gave us the "homey" feeling we were looking for as we enjoyed the pool, large screened-in porch, comfy porch furniture, well-equiped kitchen, ample living space, wireless connectivity, beautiful rising moons, gentle trade winds and, of course, the views!!! We hardly went out for dinner as we wanted to enjoy all that the Villa offered. Waterlemon Villa is a wondeful place to stay, relax, enjoy and be refreshed.

"Inspiring View"
This comfy house perched on a mountain-side is an appealing vacation rental. The indoor/outdoor showers are a unique feature and fun feature. With a well-equipped kitchen and comfortable living spaces including an appealing screened deck, it was easy to settle in for 10 days. With the pricey restaurants in Coral Bay, a good kitchen is essential.
The owner was great to work with; she genuinely wants renters to have a wonderful time, and we did.
One caution: The stairs to the downstairs bedrooms are steep and narrow. Not for those with disabilities.
We also rented the house next door, Almost Heaven. Having the 2 houses for our family of 12 was ideal.

"More Than a Million Dollar View"
Waterlemon Villa was perfect for our family of six. Our daughters and their partners enjoyed the lovely four poster beds and showers with a view on the lower level. My husband and I found the upper level bedroom convenient for getting up first to make coffee and see the sunrise over the island. We began our days with roosters crowing and birds chirping as we looked over Coral Bay and the sailboats below. The screened in porch covered the length of the house and included a wicker sitting area and iron dining table and six chairs. The glass doors to the porch opened up completely to the interior living room, dining, room, and kitchen. We had fun cooking, dining, and playing games in this entire area. Each morning and late afternoon we enjoyed the pool and lounge chairs among beautiful flowers and astounding views. This vacation brought our family in from Canada, NYC, and Omaha and we had the time of our lives. Of course we explored many beaches on this quiet side of St. John, snorkeling and swimming in crystal clear water. We love nature and spent most of our time on these winding roads, meeting the donkeys and goat herds along the way. Hiking included meeting up with red roosters, hens, and chicks as well as mongoose.
Waterlemon Villa is owned by Ellen Sandler. She responded by phone to my email inquiry within ten minutes and was completely prepared with every phase of the rental process. She promptly answered all my questions and had her caretaker meet us at the ferry to lead us to Waterlemon. We had his number in case we had any problems. Ellen's home is generously furnished, decorated, and supplied. It is a wonderful place to enjoy family and time together. This was the best experience for our first time in St. John. I highly recommend Ellen Sandler and Waterlemon Villa.

"Stunning View !!!"
Our family of six stayed at Waterlemon Villa in March 2012 and had a fantastic time! The house is wonderful! Highlites of the house include pretty much everything!..the kitchen/family room with screened in porch is where we spent most of our time when we weren't at the beaches. The screened in porch is great - connected directly to the living area it really expands the area you will spend most of your time in when at the house. The house has all the amenities of home - including internet access if you need to stay connected! Ellen provided great intel on the best beaches, restaurants, local grocery, and rental spots which was very useful. The drive in is at first a bit intimidating (steep) but we mastered it and had no trouble. We parked at the top of the driveway for easier turnaround. We found Coral Bay in the evening to be relaxing with beautiful views.

"Exceeded our expectations!"
Husband and Wife and 2 grown daughters traveled from Boston - The house is beautiful, comfortable and had everything we needed. Every morning we woke up to the most beautiful views imaginable. If we didn't eat at one of the great restaurants Ellen recommended, we had dinner on the candle lit screened porch enjoying the sights and sounds of St John. We enjoyed the pool and loved taking an outdoor shower overlooking gorgeous Coral Bay. Ellen was a pleasure to work with, she was very responsive, attentive and gave great advice.We look forward to returning to Waterlemon Villa. Enjoyed a different beach almost everyday, plenty of snorkeling and hiking!

"A relaxing vacation"
Just got back from a fabulous trip to St. John. Waterlemon Villa is all about the view. It is a beautiful Villa overlooking hurricaine hole and Sir Frances Drake passage. The landscaping and Villa are immaculate. I would definatley recommend(and have) this property to anyone wanting to rent a Villa on STJ. We loved the privacy and enjoyed the pool very much and would jump in after coming back from the beaches or from our many hikes on STJ. The island is very safe and all the locals are very friendly. The closet beach to Waterlemon Villa is Maho and it was one of my favorites. My husband said the snorkling was the best there. He seen barracuda,stingrays,nurse sharks,tarpon,sea turles and lots of healthy coral and colorful fish. Hopeful we can return in a couple years and stay at Waterlemon Villa it is truley a beautiful place.

"Paradise Found on St. John"
My family of 5 just got back from paradise at Waterlemon Villa, which the perfect base camp for our beach and snorkeling adventure. The villa is well-appointed with terra cotta tile throughout the entire home, porch and pool areas. The 2 porches are magnificent; one is screened in to protect you from the bugs and where you will want to eat candle lit meals and to enjoy the breezes and vistas of blue waters, lush mountain sides and the clouds passing by. The view is to die for -- no kidding. The house also featuers awesome wooded ceiling beams and very cool stone and coral arches. The kitchen has everything you need. The outside showers are private and give incredible views. The pool is small, but lovely. The road to the house really is a rollercoaster, which was a bit scarey at first, but then became a fun and exciting part of the day. Driving on all the roads in St. John is not for the faint of heart, but is the way to see this gorgeous island. The beds are extremely comfortable, as are the couches in the great room and on the porch. We did not need a/C during our trip in august. The ceiling fans and new oscillating fans did the trick. The home is very well maintained and clean. We had a few ants here and there, but, hey, you are in paradise at a National Park, and there will be bugs. The palms, flowering vines and other flora around the property are beautiful. The house is larger than it appears with ample room to relax and play. Coral Bay is the quiet side of town. We found beaches only a 15-minute drive away; some a bit farther. The house was a great base for use to hike and explore beaches on the East End, South Side and the North Side. I often went on solo adventures as my family loved this house so much that they didn't want to leave its loveliness. Ellen is a great and caring owner who wants you to enjoy her home. Mark, the property manager was terrific!

"Vacation in Paradise"
If you are looking for a vacation to the Islands in the Caribbean, St. John is it and the place to stay is Waterlemon Villa. It has spectacular views of Coral Bay and the Villa itself is beautiful. The owner, Ellen Sandler, was extremely helpful in offering ideas and recommending things to do and places to go on the Island. The beaches are a short drive from the Villa and we visited just about all of them and they are spectacular. If you like snorkeling this is the place to be.
This was our second trip to St. John and Waterlemon Villa was the place we wanted to come back to. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for fun, relaxing, and adventurous vacation.

"A piece of paradise"
Our family just returned from eight days in paradise. Waterlemon Villa is beautiful, clean, comfortable, and well-appointed and the gorgeous views from the villa are breathtaking. The driveway is quite steep, but with a 4 wheel drive jeep is no problem, just a sheer thrill which added an extra element of adventure to the trip. From the moment we arrived we felt pampered and relaxed, whether enjoying the views from the large screened in porch, the lower open porches, or relaxing by the pool. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking and we ate out outdoors on the porch for every meal except those when we dined out. All the small details are thought of; we never needed anything that was not provided for in the villa. St. John's beaches are just a short drive away and truly the only decision we faced all week was "what beach shall we go to today". Our children (two boys ages 15, 14, and a girl age 12) - called it the most relaxing vacation we ever took and I would agree! We certainly hope to return to St. John and when we do would absolutely stay at Waterlemon Villa again. Truly amazing!

"Gorgeous Getaway"
Waterlemon Villa is just lovely. And the view -- wow. Terrific beaches are a short drive away (we snorkeled everyday). And the villa itself is wonderful: beautiful decor and spacious lay-out with everything you could need from the fully equipped kitchen to beach towels. The pool is an extra amenity but our favorite feature was the upstairs screened porch (there is a porch on the lower level that is unscreened). Both afford truly spectacular views. Ellen is a pleasure to work with as is her on-island property manager. We know it was a good vacation when we talk of our next visit to Waterlemon Villa.

"Once again, a phenomenal Stay at Waterlemon Villa!"
My wife and I have been to St John many times, and this is the second year in a row we have stayed at Waterlemon Villa. This property is so great that we would not even consider staying anywhere else on St John! This home is in the perfect location! You are up on the hillside, which gives you an amazing view of Coral Bay and great cooling breezes. You are just minutes from some of the world's best beaches, snorkeling, and hiking trails, but you will feel amazed that there are no crowds anywhere! The house is so private that you feel as if you're all alone in the world, even though you are only a 5 minute drive up the hill from the grocery store and some outstanding restaurants. Enjoy total privacy at with your own beautiful private pool. The home has two master suites, each with 100% privacy, ensuite bathrooms with outdoor showers and very high quality furniture and bedding. We enjoy cooking at home, and the kitchen has everything you need to create your own meals with no hassle. In fact, you can eat dinner on the screened in porch upstairs, taking advantage of the amazing evening breezes. The porch also has very comfortable furniture for reading at any time of the day or night. There is a home being built next door to Waterlemon Villa, but we were not disturbed at all by the work, nor was our privacy compromised in any way. Ellen was very easy to work with and our whole trip was simply awesome, with 100% fun and 0% stress. We recommend this property to anyone wanting to spend a few days in paradise, and we will certainly be back many times in the future!

"This is the place to stay when visiting St. John"
From the preplanning stages of organizing a family vacation with grandparents and our girls, owner Ellen Sandler was empathetic to all our needs and very detail oriented. All aspects of a smooth and enjoyable vacation are more than met in choosing Waterlemon Villa. Food - both eating out or dining in, Ellen was helpful in directing us to the right restaurant / where to get the right groceries for the occasion. Beaches -suitable to active grandparents and younger children- we were given well rounded descriptions of beaches and amenities/ location. Car rental - where (who from) to rent a vehicle. Shopping - where the best shopping is for those that want to stroll the town...etc. My family and I could not have been more pleased with the service and assistance. The villa: excellent in terms of size and cleanliness, OBVIOUSLY LOCATION is without substitute, and accoutrements to the villa are another big plus ( plenty of full size beach towels, light comfortable beach chairs, coolers, blender...etc.) So much is provided by Ellen which save you from packing and paying the freight on your flight down. Pool: the pool was an invaluable benefit for our childrren (gave us parents a nice break), and a wonderful place to cool off in the evening. Porch - the screened in porch was a great place to take in the morning sunrise with coffee, and enjoy a cocktail in the late afternoon, after beaching / snorkling all day. The light and the mountains were indescribable,late afternoon, my favorite of the day, as well as, evening when the crickets and frogs are soothing as you read a book. The Villa is located a short drive from most all the beaches (all the beaches that are the best), Snorkling- my opinion, the best in the islands (and Ellen can direct you on where to go, what to see, and what sealife is at which particular beaches). I could go on...but stop reading and book the villa, you will be happy you did.

"If you can't relax here, you can't relax!"
We traveled to beautiful Waterlemon Villa as 3 adults & 2 kids. All 3 adults had
visited and stayed on St. John previously, and one of us had lived in the USVI
several years ago. So we knew that Coral Bay was our speed but put a great
deal of time and research into finding the right place to stay. We were thrilled
when we arrived at Waterlemon Villa to find that the home was everything we
had hoped for and more! It is better than advertised. Beautifully appointed
and well stocked, and the view is priceless! Ellen was a joy to work with from
the moment of our initial inquiry - informative, honest, responsive,
enthusiastic! We have rented vacation properties many times through various
websites and owners, and this was our most seamless experience to date. If
you are looking for shopping, bar scenes, and lots of other sunburned tourists,
Waterlemon is NOT for you. But if you want a relaxing home-away-from-
home vacation with a little bit of adventure and the full flavor of the island,
then this is the spot. We will return!

"It's all about the view!"
From waking in the morning and looking out the sliding doors from your
comfortable bed, to eating meals on the screened in porch, even while you are
showering in the outdoor shower or relaxing by the pool, it is all about the
beautiful view of Coral Bay and beyond at Waterlemon Villa. The nights are
quiet, the breezes always kept us cool and the air smells great; landscaping
around the villa is very pleasing. Ellen, the owner, was a pleasure to deal with,
always prompt replies to any questions and provided plentiful pics. Mark, the
on island host, was helpful and checked in with us to see how things were
going. For two couples (the home can accommodate more), this was an
excellent choice of villas and we are sad to be back home. Our stay at
Waterlemon Villa will provide beautiful memories for a long time. Thanks,
Ellen, for sharing your home.

We rented Waterlemon Villa from January 30 - February 6 and had a great experience. Once we got over the drive up to the house, we were rewarded with a beautiful view over looking Coral Bay.

I can say without hesitation that we highly recommend this villa, and look forward to future visits.

"Wish I were still there!"
Our visit to Waterlemon Villa (Feb 12-19, 2010) was incredible. The house was perfect! There were five of us - my husband and I and 3 teenagers (13, 15, 18). We could not have asked for anything better. Plenty of rrom to spread out if we wanted to - deck but the pool, screened porch on the main floor - coffee every morning out there watching the world go by - and the lower deck right off the 2 master bedrooms. The location is perfect - minutes from Coral Bay - (which, by the way, is the only place to stay in St John- Cruz Bay is too crazy and crowded - everything you need is in Coral Bay) Great restaurants, bars, shopping - You have to go to Crabby's for fun chatter and snorkeling gear.
The house and owner and local manager could not have been more garcious and welcoming - we hope to go back some day soon!

"Great stay - Dec 26, 2009 - Jan 2, 2010"
Our stay at Waterlemon Villa was awesome. It was
perfect for three couples in their late 20s / early
30s. Being on the Coral Bay side of the island was
beautiful and while it is only 20 - 25 minutes away
from Cruz Bay the remoteness from the crowds was
preferable. The views from the home are phenomenal
overlooking the BVI and the cove. Coral Bay has
some great restaurants and Island Blues was fun for
drinks if you feel like going out locally.
Big positives about the house are that it was well
equipped for cooking with the necessary cookware
and supplies. The beach chairs and towels were a
plus and sitting by the pool in the evening was a
great way to end the day. The home is well
maintained both externally and internally. Of
course the biggest plus was the location and the
You will definitely need 4WD to handle the driveway
along with going up the hill. If you are renting
with three couples there are two beautiful master
bedrooms overlooking the cove along with a third
bedroom that is nice but smaller and faces the
hillside. We had one small issue with the plumbing
but the local point of contact Marc was great and
accessible. One of the couples in our group missed
their plane so Marc went out of his way to pick up
the rental car for them and met them later at the
ferry when they arrived.
We have rented houses in Mexico, Napa/Sonoma, Park
City, etc... and I will say working with Ellen was
great. All owners take great care of their home
but Ellen was extremely responsive and did a
wonderful job making us feel at home. We highly
recommend St. John if you are thinking of going to
the Caribbean and if Waterlemon Villa is available
you should definitely reach out to Ellen.

"Waterlemon Villa-Makes Paradise Even Better!"
Waterlemon Villa is a wonderful place to stay. It is located in Coral Bay and has the most spectacular view. I took several books to read, but just could not get into them because I couldn't take my eyes off the view long enough to do so.
The villa is top notch, very nicely decorated and meticulously maintained. There is a screened in porch on the living/kitchen level that was in constant use during our stay. It was great to be able to sit, relax, enjoy the view and not have to worry about the skeeters. There was also a lower level veranda that was not screened that was equally terrific. The two master bedrooms opened to this veranda which also had access to the pool. Excellent seating on both levels and at the pool (which had plenty of loungers and a dining set). The screened porch also had a dining table and we ate all of our meals there. Enjoyed the outside shower attached to the master bedroom. Once again, gorgeous view. The second bedroom was a duplicate of the master. There is a third bedroom with twins on the upper level. With the exception of the third bedroom and bath, there are incredible views from every room in the house. The owner was a pleasure to deal with, as was the on island manager. I highly recommend this villa, but beware, it is very difficult to have to leave when the time comes!

"Amazing views from Waterlemon Villa!"
We enjoyed a perfect week in November at Waterlemon Villa. The views of Coral Bay and beyond were breathtaking, and the full moon added to the magic of the harbor. The home was comfortable, well appointed and inviting. 4 wheel drive is a necessity for the last leg of the road; something smaller than the Ford Explorer we rented will make turnarounds and navigating easier.
The kitchen was well equipped with good cookware, stoneware and plenty of unbreakable dishes and drink ware as well. Beds were comfy, and breezes and ceiling fans made for good sleeping. The open-air showers offered good views, and there is also an indoor shower on the upper level in the event of rain or for those timid about lizards or bugs at night. Deck and poolside furniture was attractive, sturdy, and functional. Pool floats were good quality, as were the chairs and coolers available for the beach.
Our favorite part of the house was the screened porch that extends the living area through French doors. It was a treat to spend long evenings taking in the scenery and enjoying the breezes without mosquitoes.
Owner Ellen was great to deal with and welcomed all questions. We look forward to return visits to Waterlemon Villa!

"House on the hill with awesome views and privacy!"
What a fabulous house! My wife and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary here. We had this huge house all to ourselves and felt somewhat guilty. Once you get up the the steep hill to get there, the view is incredible. Almost every room in the house has a great view and there was always a nice breeze. We enjoyed the privacy the house offers especially when using the pool. We can't wait to return!

"We loved Waterlemon Villa!"
My husband and I stayed at Waterlemon Villa in June, 2009. The home was lovely, and the view was FANTASTIC. We commented throughout the week that we were really glad that we did NOT stay at a hotel or in Cruz Bay. By being in Coral Bay I feel we were able to experience the "real" St. John. When we mentioned seeing the island's wild donkeys to some folks we met staying at a resort hotel...they had no idea what we were talking about. We were happy to have the home to ourselves, but with 3 bedrooms it has plenty of space for couples traveling together (two master bedrooms) or for a family. Traveling into Cruz Bay when we wanted to was no problem - but we found we preferred being right where we were. All the beaches are just a short (beautiful) drive from the house. We loved snorkeling at Trunk Bay. A must see. We also took a day trip to the Baths (British Virgin Island) which also included great snorkeling on Norman Island. All very easy to arrange. While I thought I would sleep in on vacation, I couldn't wait to get up early every moring to drink coffee while sitting on the porch and watch the sun rise. The view from Waterlemon Villa was simply amazing! We never tired of taking pictures of it! We enjoyed the pool in the mornings & late afternoons after our days exploring the island and snorkeling. With the three sets of double doors leading to the screened in porch open, and the intoxicating trade winds, we never turned on the air conditioning. The home met all our needs, and exceeded our expectations when it came to the beauty of it. When our vacation ended and we had to leave, I found myself missing Waterlemon Villa before we were even at the end of the driveway. We would love to make a return visit. Two big thumbs up for the home, the location, and the VIEW! Be prepared to have your breath taken away!

We have travelled throughout the Caribbean; St John is easily our favorite island. This was our 5th trip to St John and 1st to Waterlemon Villa. The view alone from this home is worth the trip! I wanted our 20th wedding ann. to be perfect, so I researched dozens of homes. What struck me first was Ellen's quick response to all my questions. It's clear she loves her home--important to me as I wanted a home that was well cared for. Sure enough, the home sparkled like new and every detail had been considered--including having a nice driveway, which is a BIG plus on St John!
The pool is awesome! The tiled pool deck has a shower, lounges, chairs, nice thick floating mats and a table with a retractable umbrella. The chair and lounge material stays cool and dries quickly-important in a tropical climate. The exterior stairs from the pool to the kitchen are great to get snacks and drinks without dripping water through the house. The flowers around the pool are beautiful and we had complete privacy in and around the pool.
We and our best friends used the two downstairs master suites. The beds are superb and we slept GREAT! The suites give 100% privacy. There is no AC, but it doesn't matter--there are fans in every room and the whole house enjoys a great breeze all day.
The kitchen and living areas are excellent. In 9 days we ate all but 4 or 5 meals at home (groceries were expensive but not outrageous). The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a wide variety of great meals. The screened porch off of the kitchen allowed us to eat outside, enjoy the amazing breeze, and be protected from the thriving late afternoon/evening St John mosquitos.
We are adventuresome. We like to run, swim, snorkel, hike, eat and explore. We don't like traffic, crowds or tourist traps. Coral Bay is heaven for us! Just enough of everything but not too much of anything; and Waterlemon Villa is the ticket for a fun, romantic, active, healthy vacation of a lifetime!

"Relax & Enjoy"
As a new vacationer to St. John's my wife and I did not know a lot about the island outside of our own personal research and a few recommendations from friends...to which all came out true (except for an unexpected mosquito hatch upon our arrival). other then that, the week long vacation was a success and Waterlemon Villa made it happen! the travel up, down and around the villa is one to not steer anyone away from this villa. yes it's a little challenging for non-island drivers, but after the first day or two it becomes old hat. take it slow...just like your time on vacation! it's an island and somewhere somehow villas have to be built to get views, serenity and comfort like this one provides!!! everything is there (kitchen/dining/beach amenities, comfortable furniture & bedding) and if you're lucky, you never what prior guests might leave behind for you to enjoy, too. it's all about the "package" that this hill side villa gives to all. the large screened in patio overlooking the bay is a breath of fresh air in the AM or PM hours. a relaxing pool offers that "after the beach, snorkeling, hiking, etc" feel from a long day away from the place. Even just staying in for a day or two provides that island feel we all love to have in an island vacation residence. if you're looking for a place overlooking Coral Bay where the nights are calm and no touristy flare this is the place.

"Waterlemon Villa is Wonderful"
My husband and I rented Waterlemon Villa from May 2-13,2009. This was not our first time to rent a villa on STJ but it was our first time to stay at this villa.
When inquiring about Waterlemon Villa I was in constant contact with Ellen who is part owner of the villa and a wonderful representative. Her love of the villa is very apparent. She was very quick to reply and answer any and all questions I had. One thing that impressed me was that she was just as responsive after we had decided on Waterlemon as our villa of choice as she was before.
Waterlemon is a beautiful two level,3 bedroom,3 bath(2 with outdoor showers)villa above Coral Bay. The views from both levels are amazing. There are decks on both levels that expand the length of the villa. The lower deck can be entered from the pool area or via two separate sliders from the two equal bedrooms on the lower level. The upper deck which fronts the kitchen and the living area is screened in. This is wonderful for dinners by candlelight as it assures there will be no unwanted guests in the form of insects. All of the deck furniture is white wicker and very comfortable. The only furniture on the decks that is not wicker is the dining table & chairs which are I believe iron with a glass top on the table.
The kitchen is very well appointed with all the dishes,glasses(even plastic for use by the pool)pots & pans, and everything else including a blender.
All of the bed and bath linens are of the highest quality. The bed was very comfy and it was wonderful to wake up to the sun coming up and shining into the slider window.
The landscaping is wonderful and is a work in progress. The flowers that hang above the pool deck are spectacular. The pool is on the small side but was adequate. Rafts are provided.
We loved Waterlemon Villa and it's location. The drive up to the villa is easy except the last 1/4 mile or so.After a couple times that last 1/4 mile is easy too.
We would not hesitate to rent Waterlemon Villa again.

"A true Paradise!"
Waterlemon Villa is an ideal place to stay in St. John. The house is set in the
hillside with one of the most picturesque views you can imagine. Surrounded
by lush tropical vegetation you get the feeling of privacy and seclusion and yet
you are just a short drive from restaurants, shops and beaches. The house is
well equipped with everything you need. The kitchen has every thing you need
to cook a gourmet meal. For your trip to the beach, there are coolers chairs,
and rafts. There is no air conditioning but when you open the doors to the
screened porch you get the most wonderful breeze.
The owner, Ellen, is very easy to talk to and happy to answer any questions.
The caretaker is also easy to get ahold of and and happy to assist. I highly
reccomend Waterlemon Villa!

Wow, just looking between your old version and this one you can see all the differences between your style and technical skills. It's so crazy to look back at stuff right? Looks awesome can't wait for more!
Yeah it's kind of amazing to feel development. I like to keep my old images in my gallery to see how much I can improve in time ^__^
I like seeing artists' old work too and my own. I like trying to figure out what things were important to the artist at any given time aside from content. I think that if you can figure that sort of thing out and see how they went about improving those areas it may be applicable to your own work or at least give you a starting point.
She's perdy.....

I really admire your work Fangking, no doubt you and your team took game development to a whole new level. I tried to create a G/S/C remake awhile back, but it took alot of effort, more than enough to handle. You guys a VERY determind which makes this possibly one of the best fan-generated games in exsistance. Hopefully you finish this, there were alot of games that came and went (CoL, Light, ect) but this is the only one that has stood strong the whole way.

How to Do the Salt and Ice Challenge
Have you watched YouTube videos and seen people doing the salt and ice challenge? The salt and ice challenge is where you place salt on any part of your body, usually your arm, and you place an ice cube over it and see how long you can go. Read this article, and before you try the salt and ice challenge for yourself, check out the notes on how dangerous it can be. A number of people have had frostbite which resulted in permanent scarring.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Gather your materials. You will need ice cubes (if you are trying it more than once), salt, an open space, and a timer.
2Take out your salt and hold out the part you are trying it on. Sprinkle a little salt on that place.
3Take an ice cube and place it over the salt, then immediately start timing yourself.
4Allow time to go by. You will begin to feel a burning sensation. This is because the salt is melting the ice, and since the ice is really cold, it is burning your skin.
5Remove the ice cube and check how much time has passed when it becomes too painful for you.
Community Q&A
- Don't take this challenge to extremes.
- Use acid salt for a better effect.
- Be aware that this could leave you with permanent scars if you take it too far.
- Don't use too much salt or the ice will reach a very low temperature and could leave you with serious burns.
- This hurts a lot, so if you have a low pain tolerance, re-think attempting this.
- This is a very extreme and dangerous challenge, so if you have any doubts, DON'T DO IT!
- Always have someone supervising you.
- If you are under 18, ask a parents permission to do this.

NYers will gather for Midnight Mass at WTC site
NEW YORK (AP) — New Yorkers will gather at the 9/11 memorial for Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve.
The Rev. Brian Jordan tells WCBS-AM (http://cbsloc.al/u2oFap ) that the tradition that began after the Sept. 11 terror attacks in 2001 will go on this year. Victims' families and recovery workers have gathered at the World Trade Center site every year on Christmas Eve.
The Roman Catholic priest says he was urged to celebrate Mass again this year because the 9/11 museum is still under construction. The memorial opened last year.
Jordan says this will be the final midnight gathering at the site. Special prayers will be said for the victims of Superstorm Sandy and for the people who died in the school massacre in Newtown, Conn.

If your head still isn't spinning from all of the announcements from the first day of E3 2014, wait until you get a load of what EA announced today and your head will continue spinning until each of these games are released! Here are the games that EA announced at their press conference yesterday at E3.
Star Wars Battlefront
Can DICE redeem itself with the game that they say they've always wanted to make especially after a bug-plagued Battlefield 4 launch last year? Will this Star Wars game be the Star Wars game we've all been waiting for?
Battlefield Hardline
Now you can play cops and robbers, Battlefield style! From EA and Visceral Games comes the next evolution in shooters but will it live up to the hype or will it suffer from the challenges that Battlefield 4 suffered at launch?
Dragon Age Inquisition
You can't have an EA press conference to announce a line up of upcoming EA games without a Dragon Age installment… especially one that's being launched on the new consoles!
Mass Effect 4
Okay, maybe Dragon Age was pushing it but… you can't have an EA press conference without a Mass Effect 4 announcement! Although no video was presented, various stills of concept art were shown and Bioware gave confirmation that the next Mass Effect installment would be on the Xbox One and PS4 - but you already knew that, didn't you?
Sims 4
For most of you that don't already have The Sims, you can get Sims 4 in September. I'm one of the people that already have the Sims so I'm going to skip Sims 4 when it comes out. My version of the Sims is called, "The wife, kids, and co-workers."
Using the Frostbite engine for something other than an FPS game, EA has turned it into a massive golf simulator. No word as to whether or not you will need the Kinect or some plastic golf club attachment.
Madden 15
An EA press conference wouldn't be complete without Mass Effect, Dragon Age, AND Madden 15! Come and play some football on your console and experience the best that the virtual World Cup, err, Superbowl has to offer!
Mirror's Edge 2
Before Titan pilots could wall run and parkour, Mirror's Edge's Faith was running circles up and down walls and pilots and all! Currently in development, Mirror's Edge 2 promises to bring the vertigo!

Thank You Maya Angelou!
Maya Angelou novelist, actress, professor, singer, dancer and activist has fallen silent.
We would like to say thank you Maya Angelou for all of your contributions that you have shared with society.
Watch the video below to get a glimpse of this "Phenomenal Woman".
Phenomenal Woman
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms,
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them,
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing,
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need for my care.
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

"Jammin' On The One!"
?uestlove informed you about this episode from "The Cosby Show" in his recent interview with Nardwuar. In this scene, Stevie Wonder greets the Huxtables as they enter his recording session. The invitation to the studio came about after Stevie's car accident with Denise. So being the researchers that we are, here's the clip from "The Cosby Show" which ?uestlove was referring to in his interview with Nardwuar.
Sometimes kids tend to give the "new teacher" or the "substitute teacher" a difficult time because they get the sense that the normal routine has changed in there favor.
In this episode of "Fat Albert", Rudy believes just that and tries to take advantage of Mrs. Johnson. But to Rudy's surprise, he gets a rude awakening.
Remember kids you go to school to learn. The teacher is there to teach you and to lend a helping hand in your educational development.

VALLEJO -- Six Lake County wineries on Saturday let visitors to the Vallejo waterfront in on an decreasingly secret part of North Coast winegrowing.
Rosa d'Oro, Chacewater Winery and Olive Mill, Olof Cellars, Langtry Estate and Vineyards, Art and Farm Wines and Moore Family Winery were pouring their wines at an afternoon event that drew scores of people to the grassy area next to the Vallejo ferry building.

"This was a wonderful event with wine, food, activities and artisan crafters," said Terry Dereniuk, director of Lake County Winery Association. "It gave us a chance to showcase Lake County wines and introduce the Lake County wine region to people in the Vallejo area."
Also poured were flights of sauvignon blanc wines from Six Sigma Ranch & Winery, Wildhurst Vineyards, Steele Wines, and Vigilance Winery by Ms. Dereniuk, association board member Lu Baird and Gaye Allen, author of Lake County Wine Guide.
The even included kite-flying, arts and crafts, barbecued food, chocolatiers, music, tai chi and yoga.
Public figures who attended the event included Rep. Mike Thompson, D-St. Helena, there with his wife, Janet, and Vallejo Mayor Osby Davis.

A gripping evening session had almost everything including a century break, superb safety, alleged obscene gestures and a threat from O'Sullivan to go home. The result leaves O'Sullivan three frames from a final against Ricky Walden or Barry Hawkins as he bids for his fifth Crucible title.
Two scoring breaks without reply proved enough for O'Sullivan to take the opener before a nervy second followed. Trump looked set to level the evening session on his first visit but a missed black on 31 let O'Sullivan in. With the frame seemingly in the bag, O'Sullivan missed the penultimate red but Trump again let him back in with a twitch on the final blue and Ronnie made no mistake at the second time of asking.
Trump needed to win the next and he did so in style, rattling in a fluid 117 clearance - comfortably his highest break of the match.
The Bristolian looked to be in the box seat in the next until a careless foul on the yellow with the rest let O'Sullivan in for a frame winning contribution to stretch his lead to four frames. Trump looked dismayed at his mistake and tweeted so at the break that he was making 'too many schoolboy errors'. Certainly not the kind of 'naughty snooker' he was banking on.
Both players had chances in the first frame after the mid-session interval but O'Sullivan held his nerve as the frame went down to the deciding three balls to pull further clear. Despite some distractions by dome over exuberant O'Sullivan fans in the next, Trump responded with a gutsy 60 despite a miss on the yellow and a failed snooker escape.
The pressure beginning to tell, both players missed balls in an unusually scrappy 23rd frame and things began to get fractious when referee Michaela Tabb reprimanded O'Sullivan, saying: "Don't make obscene gestures again, OK?"
O'Sullivan merely said he was wiping something off his cue before joking "I want to go home". But it seemed to unsettle him and Trump pulled another back after the longest frame of the match.
After that lapse, the old Ronnie O'Sullivan may have lost the plot in the final frame and followed through with his threat of going home but he put the incident to the back of his mind to knock in a break of 89 to take a four frame lead into Saturday.
Ronnie O'Sullivan had the better of the second session of his semi-final encounter against Judd Trump to lead 9-7 going into Friday's evening session.
The pair were locked at 4-4 going into the day and Trump was first amongst the balls in the opener but a missed pink to the middle that appeared to veer off at the last minute to let O'Sullivan in for a frame-winning clearance of 90.
Another miss to the same middle pocket for Trump, this time on a red with his break on 35, appeared to give O'Sullivan the impetus to stretch two clear but an easy missed red to the corner allowed Trump to level matters once more. O'Sullivan edged a tense and scrappy third with both players missing easy balls by their own high standards and the see-saw battle continued as Trump levelled at 6-6 after O'Sullivan again squandered chances to pull away.
O'Sullivan was first amongst the balls in the next but a loose positional shot and poor safety let in Trump for a 41 before he ran out of position on the pink. But O'Sullivan missed two good chances, the second a tough red on the top rail as Trump levelled once more.
A careless miss on the pink from Trump with his break on 31 proved costly in frame 13, O'Sullivan potting a superb red off the baulk rail en route to the frame. It appeared as though nerves were beginning to affect the younger player, a big twitch on a straight red letting O'Sullivan in for a frame-winning 93 break, only a simple missed yellow denying him the chance to close to within one century of Stephen Hendry's Crucible record of 124.
A 60 break proved enough for O'Sullivan to pull three clear at 9-6 but Trump edged a tense final frame of the session lasting half an hour, potting the blue and pink he needed to pull back to within two frames.
Ronnie O'Sullivan and Judd Trump are tied at 4-4 after the opening session of their World Championship semi-final at the Crucible.
O'Sullivan used up considerably less energy than his last-four opponent at the quarter-final stage, brushing aside Stuart Bingham 13-4 whilst Trump snatched the deciding frame in a 13-12 match of the tournament so far against Shaun Murphy.
But though O'Sullivan drew first blood with a break of 65 to win the opening frame, Trump proved he had plenty of resolve remaining by levelling up via re-spotted black in the engrossing second.
The 2011 Crucible runner-up soon paid the price for a number of rashly-judged shots as the four-times champion used compiled breaks of 40 and 34 to stave off Trump's futile quest for snookers at the end of frame three, before a polished 75 put O'Sullivan 3-1 up going into the mid-session interval.
The 15-minute break did little to halt the momentum of 'The Rocket' as he pounced on an unfortunate Trump in-off at the start of frame five, dropping in the session's best knock of 89 for a three-frame lead.
But, as fate would have it, O'Sullivan then went in-off himself at the start of the very next frame and 50 was enough for Trump to pull a frame back for 4-2 before a 56 break with one of many fantastic reds followed by a deft snooker to pave the way for a frame-winning clearance.
Trump finally had the momentum with him as the last frame of the session began with a lengthy battle of safety exchanges, but while both men were clinical in keeping opportunities for the other at a premium, it was O'Sullivan who paid the price after stumbling on a break of 40.
A shockingly poor safety attempt at 40-0 gave Trump the chance to unleash his best cueing of the semi-final so far, and his 72 break took him beyond reach on the final colour trail to bring him all square from three down.

Residents driving by Freedom Park in Greenwood in a few weeks will begin to see fences and stakes marking where an aquatic center will be built.
On June 2, give or take a few days, construction will start on a project that has been under discussion in Greenwood for more than a decade and became a topic of complaints from residents once the city closed and demolished its 55-year-old pool.
The city tore down the old pool in 2012 because of disintegrating bathhouses and concerns that pool revenue was $30,000 to $54,000 less than its operating costs. Residents are about to begin their third summer without a public pool in the city, and officials, including council member and pool committee chairman Thom Hord, have said the new aquatic center has taken too long to build.
City council members and residents served on a pool committee that studied whether aquatic centers could make enough money to pay for their own operations and recommended to the council a design with amenities, such as slides and a lazy river. The aquatic center was expected to break even or even earn money.
But a pool engineering firm recently estimated that the aquatic center now planned for Greenwood wouldn't sell enough in passes and memberships to pay for about $200,000 per year in operating costs. The city then eliminated a slide and a play area and shortened the lazy river to cut costs.
Redevelopment commission member Bryan Harris asked at a meeting Tuesday if the trimmed designs would bring operation costs closer to breaking even.
"We're hoping," Mayor Mark Myers said.
Now, contractors are scheduled to dig up topsoil, spread gravel to support future asphalt parking lots and dig holes for a lazy river and pool within the next few months.
A recent suggestion to consider moving the pool park location northeast toward the Interstate 65 exit at County Line Road has been dropped. A planned hotel and sports complex made the area appealing for the aquatic center, Hord had said. The city didn't pay for any research about locating a pool at the site.
The goal now is to have concrete poured and most construction finished before winter, said project manager Bart York of construction management company Skillman Corp. of Indianapolis. The project should take about 11 months to build and is slated to open in May 2015.
The city has agreed to contracts with companies to extend water, electricity and sewer services to the property, build pools and two buildings, and install water slides.The contracts total $7.2 million for construction.
The city redevelopment commission, which is paying for the $10 million aquatic center, approved the $7.2 million in construction contracts Tuesday with a unanimous vote.
"This is really a good day for the city," Hord said. "We're hoping to get wet next summer."
