    The Negril.com Message Board was started back on July 31st, 1997...

    Here is a blast from the past:

    July 31st 1997

    Wow! I guess I've been on this board since almost the beginning. We started planning our first trip in Aug. or Sept. of 1997. My wife Kay was changing jobs and had a little extra cash. She asked me where I would like to go on a winter vacation. She probably thought I'd say Cancun or somewhere in Mexico again. Nope, a guy at work had just returned from Negril and convinced me that was the place to go. I got on the internet, typed in Negril and the rest in history. We've been every year since. Alas, not this year.

    Got lots of big projects going on with the house and other things this Winter. But We are planning next year already. Another South Coast and Negril adventure.

    The board was just a few months old when I discovered it. I lurked for many months before I began posting. Been here ever since.

    I thoroughly enjoy reading the trip reports, especially those of newbies & boardies who have lots more exciting stays than I do.

    I have done nothing for two days trying to catch up on the board after being in Negril last week. Phew! Finally done. I really enjoyed the reports from Sweetness, TicToc, Sprat, Patty & Clarity. Did I miss anybody?

    Biggs - You and I should write a trip report for our 1st Trip - Mine was in March 1978 and Negril sure looked a whole lot differetn back then. I will need to get some of the folks that were with me to corroborate certain events since that is coming up on 34 years now..! The Newbie reports are great to read just for the exuberance of then finding this likkle Paradise called Negril. I am talking Tizzy from Austin & Manda From Toronto and of course the Markus & Daisy adventures too.

    Its like Jam..People come and people go for a variety of reasons..Some go to other boards that aren't as "Tourist" orientated, etc...I enjoy reading other peoples experiences in Jam-the Newbies as well as the Oldtimers....and always Love seeing the pictures !!! It seems I always learn something new no matter how long one has been coming to Jam...Thats what its all about: To Share and To Learn....(IMHO)
