Re: Coming In From The Cold...an unremarkable trip report

Everyone else has said almost everything I could. I just want to add thank you for sharing part of your life with us, what a nice experience. And I have to add, part of what got me hooked at the beginning was I could read your posts easily. No offence to anyone, but sometimes I have trouble with American English online. Does this thread mean we're seeing the creation of a new Jamaican writer?

You're too modest (in a few ways, I think). I'll be looking for your next tale. Thanks!

Soulie - Thanks for sharing this most amazing gift with us - the women & men in your life are so very lovely!!! Mom's home is SO LOVELY!! What a blessing!

I seriously hope you get your trip down to meet all the Sisters - what an awesome place for you all to come together to see if your two characters, spirits, and souls might mesh for real.

What a RIOT - Mom and Aunt take a cruise to Ochi - and the couple they should connect with - [img]/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] ... the stories they all must have to share about all their life experiences !!

Do continue to write ... about anything -

Uncle C.W. takes a break from his “spinning” duties to converse with the ladies, and judging by aunt M.J.’s look here, whatever he’s selling, she’s not buying…



Realizing his theory is falling apart faster than the SS Minnow, he returns to his assigned duties, and snatches up wifey for a dance, with Mama looking on and directing…

Re: Coming In From The Cold...an unremarkable trip report

Forgive me for joining the party so late, but I just am loving(the parts that I have read-haven't finished) this trip report. I love the everyday runnings. The personal connection, just observing how people live thier lives. And how hard they work. I'm stuggling now, and it's about to get WORSE, but incomparsion to others, I need to be on my knees thanking God everyday. Thanks for the reality check and for showing the humanity and dignity of the people who live on that beautiful island.
Peace

i'm almost 100% sure that painting is by Barrington Watson, Jamaica's master painter.
