Captaind The People at the Negril Sands made me pay Twice for that Buffet....and it was worth it!

Piggymon...YES! That stretch of highway between DC and the PA Turnpike could get very cold, dark, and lonely. I had an experience finding myself off the main highway somewhere in Georgia around 1970 that could be the opening scene for a movie.

While I can't recall the details, he was supposedly involved in the sinking of a boat off the shore of Negril (and he used to get very upset whenever it was brought up.

I want to hear more about this!

Sorry about the misidentification. I don't remember and long neck red stripe bottles, just the squatty ones. But then memory is the first thing that goes. Thanks for the information, Pine Tree John.

Love the stories from the 1970s. I shared about my experience and photos on a post entitled Le Mirage.
The town was very sleepy. I have a great photo of downtown Negril--a pig lounging about in 1977. It appears from the lettering that the store that printed the photo reversed the image--funny.
