By this point in time Lenbert has decided that everyone who remains on the pub crawl can fit into the bus for one run to the next bar. He is a very optimistic man. Did you know you can have an insanely good time packed like sweaty little sardines into a Caribbean charter bus? You can, you really can. The bus ride itself was hilarious. As we blow by Sexy Rexy’s and Sir D’s it becomes obvious where our next destination is – The Westender Inn. We’ve driven by but never stopped so this is exciting. The grounds are gorgeous and the cliff area is very interesting. It has what looks like a hot tub built right into the cliffs and there is a nice jetty that shoots out into the sea. We roam, but Sweetie Pie and I stay mostly on the cliff side of the road. We should have checked out the other side a little more from what I was told. Markus and I get into a long and animated discussion. By this time I’ve already developed my Readers Digest version of last nights events but Markus dives in and we go deep. We share a very similar philosophical outlook and he offers viewpoints that comfort me. My favorite from the conversation is defining, I think - Good things don’t happen. Bad things don’t happen. Things happen and we decide if they’re good or bad. I decide then and there that things are happening RIGHT NOW that are good. We continue on different topics. The human condition is a favorite of mine if you couldn’t tell and it ranks right up there for Markus I believe. I am a scientist as well and value observation. I discuss with Markus a plan I’m considering that concerns a risky fascination with the observation of some unusual human behavior. Markus puts the squelch on it. “That’s not happening!” he says and checks my head. Alternate plans are considered and pursued. Man, I love this guy…
Gerry was very comfortable all week at the Westender
Jetty time. Markus and I are in deep –
The lovely Sweetie Pie wonders “Who is Guirigay more interested in right now?”
