Major Storm here in the DC/Md/Va Metro has knocked out Power, Internet & Water since Friday 6/30. In all my years of traveling to Negril and for the many reason I due, This is a first that I'm going for modern conveniences I can't get here lolThursday can't get here soon enough, see ya then
years ago..power-water.. all would go out, even on just Shady days lol...much better last 10 yrs....they have came a long way.....
why, they used to run out of "Kiss" snacks on the first day they got stocked on the shelves in HiLo's early days....
we just loved those Kerosene Lamp nights, with the waves lapping on the cliffs at Heartbeat

I feel ya Packrat!! Here in West Virginia, we got hit big time. Rather unusual for us....70 mile per hour winds with mucho damage. Our power is now restored but I have to admit, I have learned a lot about adapting from Jamaica. Enjoy your trip!
Rambo....Kerosene lamps are still an item that I keep at home! However, we also have several propane lamps around which were a real lifesaver this time!
even if the power was on, we would take the lamp down by the edge of the cliffs and sit there, the faded yellow flame was like
"a fireplace" flame flickering, throwing shadows....wonderful to sit back and listen to the "world" off in the distance.....very romantic......

We're spending the week in the mountains of North Carolina and as we we're driving up I 95 from North Florida we saw convoys of line trucks heading North.
