It was nice to have a blended fruit punch again at Seastar Inn. I wasn't drinking alcohol -- yet -- because the Seastar had a arranged to have a scooter there waiting for me, and sure enough Garrett handed me the keys, and there was a full tank of gas.
I drove down the hill past the roundabout just for fun, and it was there that I ran into an old friend, Andrew, whom I had met near Tedd's a few trips back, and we always say HI when we bump into one another. He was riding a scooter, too, and he was like, "Ya mon, what's up?"
It was near that little stretch of straightaway between the roundabout and Sunset on Beach, and I said, "Let's race!"
He said he races for money, but I just took off, and with no other option, pride was on the line for this young local. I pulled ahead, but he caught me, and we had a good laugh. He asked if he could "hang out" with me (translation: me buy him a beer or whatever), but I said I was busy cause I just got in and wanted to say HI to Shayne near Legends. He's a cabbie and a long-time friend.
As things turned out, I did not see Shayne (he later said his cab was in the repair shop), but I did run into CHICKEN BLUE, a top jerk-barrel guy near Alfreds. It was pretty quiet for a Friday night on the strip.
I figured I would cruise back up the hill: Next stop, De Bars.
Hey man I think I saw you scootering down the road yesterday but it didn't click into my head until you had passed already...you were heading up west end rd and I was walking down

Sorry, sometimes I have blinders on -- if I slow down too much, I end up buying trinkets, lol ....

Back to Friday night, it was slow at Debars, too. But I didn't care. It was nice to see Eddie and Trevor and rest of the gang. BTW, I notice Sunset on the Cliffs no longer has the security chain in front of the driveway -- a surprise considering the security issues two reaches ago.
There wasn't much action going on, except for when I locked myself out of my room within an hour of my arrival, and Chris just shook his head .... Plus, my new baseball cap (Chicago White Sox) flew off while I was riding up the hill, and the car behind me ran it over.
Back at the Seastar Inn, I finished the evening with several strong drinks. We had vague plans to go to Scrub a Dub with Chris, but when I left for a short time to cruise around, we ended up getting separated and Chris went home early -- that's acceptable considering Scrub a Dub doesn't even start until 2 a.m. or something; I didn't want to go without Chris -- understandable because I got pick-pocketed for 20 dollars a couple of reaches ago -- through Chris said Garrett wanted to go ... Instead, I went to sleep -- my first night in Negril, and I had a big smile on my face as I dosed off.
So, glad you can recapture that feeling again for all of us! The sounds, the smell, ahhhhhhh. Love, love how you have kept this tread going. Have a wonderful time & be safe GerryG123
