The lead up to the 1980 Trip To Memory Lane!
It real started I guess as soon as I let in 1974, just couldn’t, get out of my head, you know the feeling.
When I got home I sent Daisy her money and she sent letter back thinking us for staying there with them. She will become home base now
I had been back a few days and saw I brought a nest of freeloads back home with me.
They could have just stayed in Negril, yes the craps no problem here at home just get some Kwell and all done.
Everyone wants to know how Negril changed, here it is.
John had the bug for Negril bad and he went back in about nine months and stay up at Daisy again, every thing went with no problem he left the car idea at the airport and got a ride this time.
He gets back and there has be a new bar open up just up the road with cold beer and rum punch with ice, it called Rick’s and it’s right on the edge of the cliff with great sets.
Then a few more months later is is off again down there and now they have electricity,
Then again he goes and they have the water line in the ground now and the showers were cooled, but they have some pavement on the road.
A little about John he was a carpenter and work was on an off this is the (Carter Years) interest rate at 17%, that will slow you down, so he had the time to go.
He was also a person who alway know a guy who know a guy, they held with income.
He come back again and Franklin and Daisy have built a 4 bedroom A frame house behind their house to rent out. Now things are moving.
He has a short time turn around and is back on his way down, some times the heat would get a little hot for him at home and he need to cool down in the hot sun far away for a week or so.
Now, they have put up a restaurant The Rock Del.
There is other news he brings back this trip from Daisy which is not good.
Remember Gladstone Daisy said he turned bad and would not stop with the girls an robbing people and the police shoot him dead one night. I has not seen a cop with a gun in 1974 just a stick.
Then Daisy had to take her rooms for let down because a drug deal shoot one of her guess in the front yard. They put a wire fence around the property and got a couple more dogs.
It 1980 now and I am making plans I write Daisy and tell her I am coming can I stay there,
Hear it comes “No Problem Mon” she writes back in a letter.
