[smith744]

remember in an earlier ".On-Site Trip Report."
i mentioned my landlord's son (and family)
being on-island the same time as i was..??..

son's *wife* made an interesting comment,
regarding school supplies for her children::::>>> "..IF i'd known (the prices), i would have purchased school stuff down HERE IN JAMAICA,,, rather than back-home in Canada.."

anyhoooooooooooooooo......

in another earlier On-Site report,
i mentioned chatting with a guy in the Lucea 'Hurry-Hurry' about what his church was doing for the school children, for back-to-school.
.
.
.


.
.
while i watched several children
making their shoe selections
he explained that his church purchased items for children in-need

he had 'bout 20 children in the church van

while we chatted
he wrote down his contact info
...see:::>> pic above

AGAIN:::>>> NO NEED to bring down stuff
give money to a good group, church, organization etc
let 'em get it THERE on-island

i feel kinda bad posting the pic/info above, so late

'twas a few days after i met this guy,
that while walking around Lucea (on a Sunday)
i heard this::>> '.toot toot.' from a van
and the driver shouted::>> "..Hey, Bill.."

it was the church guy

the van was chock-FULL with youths,
going or coming from a church something(?)

ummmmmmmmmm..
