Back in the day when Mark and Ilene where the owners of both the mountain and seaside properties the place was my second home! But only because of the fellow Manzie that took care of the place. I will always have respect for Marc and his wife. But Manzie made Banana Shout worth the trip. I would be rare day that I do not have a memory of one of the many times I have visited Jamaica that does not involve my friend! I have been lucky in life by those that I have meant! Knowing Manzie makes me a very lucky man!
