MoBay - ...my 1st Jamaica experience

Re: MoBay - ...my 1st Jamaica experience

Thank you ever so much Ms. Vi I sat back and enjoyed reading your story once more. It took me back and the feelings were so real to me also.

I would have hoped something more would have came from your friendship with Careeb. Who knows Vi you could be living in Jamaica by now. I am happy to hear you will be going back. Take careful notes I am anxiously awaiting this trip report already. But most of all have the best time ever.

Orbra, mi dear sista.

Thank you so much. You have a special spirit, one that I am grateful to have in my life. You really know how to make a little girl feel loved. How beautifully you put this.

Yes, we all of GFT do have our own private anticipations for July. You, Marilyn, Sammy and Angie have patiently listened to some of mine. To finally put a face to these wonderful personalities is actually my greatest anticipation for this trip. Sometimes I think about each of you ask myself…is Marilyn that beautiful in person and soul as she is in those pictures??? YES without a doubt…she is. Does Sammy’s smile light up a room the way it lights up a post, email and pm??? Yes, no question it does. Will Angie voice melodically flow like that even when she’s giving direction, counsel or ordering a meal??? Yes…of course it will. And my dear Orbra…will you get tired of me asking you a zillion questions and begging you to talk to me…say anything Orbra, just fill my head with your wisdom and insight. No…I pray you won’t.

I feel this upcoming trip will outshine the first because I know myself better, my respect for Jamaica has deepened and I’ll be surrounded by such a wonderful mix of personalities and talents.

Thank you for your encouragement…thank you for being you!!! [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

(((Jah mouse))) always happy to hear from you dahlin. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Thank you again for hangin with me the second time around. You are right about the upcoming trip. I keep telling myself if the actual trip is anywhere near as exciting as the pre-trip buildup, I am in for the time of my life. Thanks for the well wishes. Gotta say, as I get to know more and more people like yourself through this board, I wish that more of you were joining us so that I can personally say “Hi” and give you a sisterly hug.

Hey there (((Sjb))) Thank you again. I hope your story started as and is continuing on happily. No we are not in touch presently. I do think about Careeb more now after reposting the report and wonder if our paths will cross in July. Well…we’ll see. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Hi (((Cinnni))) Thanks to you also…and girl you know how to tap a keyboard yourself. Your reports are great!!! I think being there and seeing some of the things I saw helps you to be there with me. Glad you decided to ride along again. Sure would have been nice if you could be joining the groups in July. Sorry you have to wait a while, but the time will pass quickly. I’ll be sure to dedicate a special moment to you while I’m there. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Hey BlueAngel...where you been sweetie??? Missed you round dees parts. Glad you enjoyed it and thank you again for your efforts and support in getting this back up and running.

Although we couldn't get the original in place, Marilyn was right...the new comments are just as precious to me as the first ones.

Girl the thought of living in Jamaica is definitely a pleasant one. He was a sweetheart and a very caring person. I will never forget him and hope our paths do cross again. But don’t think it could have gone any further than friendship.

Now about July…girl I will try to keep notes, but I promise pictures galore!!! [img]/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Thanks again for your kind words.

“Yestada. I went to the hospital. Dem give me a shot, bandage wrappins and mi on my way.”
Thoughts racing running through my head….What??? No sick leave…No disability…no worker’s comp…no law suit…no skull-splitting migraine??? My head was aching just looking at him.
“Who pays for the hospital expense Wayne?”
“The company building de house. But evryting is cool mon. It was ah accident.”
Adrienne asked, “How do you feel now, Wayne?”

“Mi feel fine. No pain.”

We were shocked[/qb]

[img]/forums/images/graemlins/704555_dwl.gif[/img] This is just to funny to me.

Vi, great report, I'm truly enjoying reading it so far. I usually only scan reports for pics but for some reason I decided to read this one, I'm glad I did. I visited MB on my last trip stopping only briefly and I liked what I saw. I made a mental note to come back and stay a little longer. I'm sorry I missed your first installment. I'm only up to page 2, I'm sleepy now but I'm looking forward to reading the rest tomorrow night well not tomorrow night Piston playing the Lakers, but the following night...

Re: MoBay - ...my 1st Jamaica experience

Re: MoBay - ...my 1st Jamaica experience

Oh (((Sugar Shug)))
You know you always welcome in mi yard. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
I’m glad you enjoyed it. It was nothing but fun all the way. Even the presumed lost camera bad made me laugh after I got far enough away from Gregory. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/704555_dwl.gif[/img]
I agree, reading trip reports are what keeps us going until the next visit. Mine is down to 29 days!!!

How'd you delete the replies? Did you copy the entire report into and editor? Printing and reading would be convenient.

Re: MoBay - ...my 1st Jamaica experience

Hi (((Tee Tee!))) So glad you are enjoying it so far. I’m honored that you decided to read it through so I guess taking second to the Pistons and Lakers is okay. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Girl you should have seen us staring at his head and this huge bandage. We felt bad for him but when we saw that he was fine, didn’t even have a headache, we sorta laughed at the thought of a brick bouncing off his head. He was even laughing himself.

Well when you return feel free to point out other parts that make you laugh, cry or wonder “What was she thinking???” You got a lot of catching up to do and the best is near the end. BUT don’t cheat and skip ahead… Enjoy!

I deleted the replies by editing as a word document. I had to do it manually unfortunately but didn't take long. As far as the 8pt font..I saved it in that font to save space but when I print it out I will go to 10pt font and do front and back page printing! [img]/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
