Janet had a little trouble at the school that I didnt know about...she told me about this later at Drifters when we saw Joan again..there were a couple older guys that were in the yard...one came up to Janet and told her he didnt have any underwear on and then showed her...he asked for money and when she said she didnt have any money on her, he told her he put a curse on her and she would die tonight...when Janet told me this (5 hours later) i tell Joan about it..she says the same thing happened to her this morning and the guy was later arrested...good news is she made it through the night...lol...

We stayed here when we got married in 2012. And while the food was not much to write home about the staff was great(we still stop and see Mike every time we walk by!) and the room was clean and suited our very limited needs. For the price I agree its a good deal!

It is now Friday, May 2, 2014...we are up at 6 and in the car headed to St Anthonys Kitchen at 630...we made up about 60 individual bags of goodies to give out, and had a couple bags of gifts, toys, flash cards, books, ec...that we donated to the Kitchen...they give them out for birthdays, good grades, rewards for good deeds, etc....every morning the kids stop here for a meal before heading off to school...the also prepare lunches, cutting up veges, peppers, taters, etc...on this day, there are aobut 40 kids that come thru, of all ages...several pics of our morning...

Someone vandalized the school bus used to take kids to school? How sad....

Hey Groove,
You and Janet are givers as that is admirable. I have learned that vacation is not whole without some giving back. Respect man. And respect for getting up that early after a late nighter. I did the same thing to Pooper on this last trip where she had to get up and do a spay and neuter clinic after a late night. Not sure how she pulled it off as the next day was ROUGH for me. But she did and came back to Seastar beaming. Thanks to Seastar for providing an awesome driver. He took us to Summerset, dropped her off, took me to the beach, and checked in on her throughout the day to make sure all is good. He took my cell and reached out when he was ready to head back with her.

hey buddy...

yes, if i remember correctly, someone "stole" the van at night, joy ride for awhile, it was found a couple miles away, with lots of damage...joan borrowed a small van, had a couple private drivers, and i think even paid a couple taxis to get the kids to school that day...her brother and family was visiting from kingston, and he helped by driving some of the kids...some great people who do what they can...

and yes, we try to give back...we know sandy does alot(cant call her pooper, lol) with the animals, and that is so great...we dont have kids, have 5 dogs and 2 cats....we take lots of stuff for the kids, but also 5 lbs of dog and cat food...
