Garret never really has a whole lot to say, but a super nice guy.

Good times, my brotha, good times!

I'm leaving at 11:30 a.m. today, and I haven't even packed. Guirigay and Sweetie Pie came to Seastar Inn for breakfast to help see me off and guide me through the depression of leaving my favorite place on earth. I still managed to visit Westender and Xtabi before Clives's is coming to pick me up. I gave out a bunch of subs, tipped some of the workers and made special arrangements for Garrett to help me pack; without him I could not have made it in time.

Every time I leave Negril, I'm not quite sure when I will be back. Usually I return soon, but you never know, and 2013 I have more responsibilities than ever. I've got my usual work, plus I'm a certified Paralegal now, and I have my daughters, 7 and 8, half the time back in Los Angeles.

I've been thinking a lot about if I really WANT to return. Much as I love Negril, the town hurts my feelings sometimes. Plus, it's hard to keep spending so much money when I have other things going on.

Then again, I say that every time, and look what has happened.

I've got an hour left.

Gerryg - I've been loving all your pictures and reports (especially the pictures from the country and Half moon bay - so beautiful!)
What day did you leave? We just missed each other! I think we were just arriving as you were flying out! I was hoping you'd still be on the rock and we could surprise you with a visit!
Regardless, you know you'll be back in Jamaica sooner then you think

gerryg123 I so enjoy reading your reports! I too have had some hurt feelings over the 14 years my husband and I have been going to Negril. As a result of that we have had to change up the way we do things sometimes. The good far out weighs the bad tho. Negril is my favorite place on the planet too. I hope you do return. Your writing transports me there,and helps the time between visits go by more quickly! We only get there once a year now. Take care

Yeah, too bad. I left the 27th and you arrived a couple of days later. I know you kept it quiet on the board, but in Negril the news that you and Marcus were returning was simply too BIG to keep hush about it. Maybe I will see you in April ... MAYBE .....
