Jasperpso, love your trip reports. Have a question for you, I've been hearing on IRIE FM, that there's places on the West End that have no water, for like a month now. Do you know anything about that and if so were on the WestEnd?

Where is your ice cream parlor? I'm in Rockford, IL and I LOVE ice cream.
Mi parlor is in burlington Iowa,(on the mississippi river) just a couple hrs from u.. I make 20+ flavors all based on 5 basic natural ingredients.. milk, cream, sugar, eggs, and vanilla.. just like the good ol days on the farm.. its great, and I would like to some day be selling my ice cream in Negril.. here's to hoping..
No idea on the water situation, but they had water at the escape, as well as seastar inn.. never heard a thing about it.. hope if it iss going on that it is resolved soon - hard enough with out those hardships to endure

There was a thread about this a few weeks ago, I didn't read the whole thing but from what I took from it was you don't really have to worry if staying at a hotel because they have a reserve tank or something. A friend up in Whitehall complains every time we talk about what a pain in the arse it's been having to go elsewhere for showers and washing clothes, but also mentioned it's not like that everywhere.
Great report Jasperpso. I got sad just reading about the trip coming to and end. I just HATE that feeling! I'm hoping I don't end up in the same boat as you...I leave in 5 days and woke up today not feeling so great. Oh well, what are ya gonna do right?

Jasperpso - do you ever go to Yamakka My Weekend in the Quad Cities in August?
Great times, good music. There wasn't any ice cream being sold last year. You would be a great addition to the festival.
Great idea, no I have never been.. there are allot of things going on that weekend for me every year, so it hasn't worked out.. also, our store has less then 2 yrs of selling ice cream, and we aren't set up for mobile sales as yet. But like I said, I'm sure it is a great idea..
here are some pics
i usually shoot allot - this time i didnt even get my camera out of the bag.. i shot all these with a samsung smartphone.. for a phone they are pretty good.. i am a bit ashamed of not taking some with my lx-5 though.. they wiould of been better..
