Shopping is Serious Business: A Day at Silver Sands Factory Stores

Posted on December 21, 2011 by Jan Ross

I lolled back in my pool side lounge chair, opened my eyes, glanced out at the navy blue strip of ocean I could view through the railing slipping silently past as we cruised to our next gorgeous Caribbean port, and lazily mulled over whether to apply more sunscreen, move into the shade, or possibly just … Continue reading »
