I always stop by and see Barry. Migg G used to carry school books for him and did some teaching.
Gloria always loved him specially.
I'll say hello next Sunday

Love the pics of Miss G's yard. I stayed there for several months in 89 and have many pictures of the yard, the A-frame, No-Name Bar, Howard, Wayne, Thumper, Shorty & all the usual suspects. Miss Gloria was ill when I was there so didn't come out of the house much, but Miss Lynn was in charge and ran a pretty tight ship. I wish I had a scanner, I'd share my pics. Those were some days I'll never forget. Exactly as you said - laid back, no-problem, lazy days, with the odd bit of drama thrown in periodically just to keep things interesting!
Hi Miranda,
The last time I stayed with Miss Gloria was in 1987 and then due to career and family didn't get back to Jamaica until 1999 so there was a pretty big gap there. When I visited Barry in 99 I sadly learned of Miss G's passing. I must say that in all the times I stayed with her she never had a cross word with me. I gave her the respect that she deserved and got the same in return. I remember Carl, Howard and Maureen and of course Barry. Miss G had a boyfriend (Mr. Pat) who drove a white Cooper automobile. There were certainly times of odd drama thrown in usually a visitor that got too high or was outright crazy to begin with that did something stupid. But so is the case everywhere. The island is truly magical and has it's own magnetic forces that keeps drawing you back for more.
