Jitterbug, I knew of Zion Country, but didn’t know WHERE it was. I read about it before this reach and it sounded like something I wanted to check out. I wish I knew I was right there. But I will l look for it when I return. And as far as enjoying the out of the way places, that’s all I do. I love to explore and I love variety which makes Portland perfect for me. I’ll check out a (fee required) tourist attraction just for the one-time experience. But I will go back if it touches me, like rafting the Rio Grande, Reach Falls or Pelican Bar. And yes, I’ve learned a lot about “life” from my conversations with some very honest folks. Some of those conversations left me speechless.
“be in the moment” is the only way to appreciate what Jamaica has to offer us visitors. In my mind, the beach was perfect, rustic yet not abused. Yeap, from the tire swings to the stranded boat…perfect.
Hi kaycee! Welcome. I’m glad you found this ride too. Happy to have you on board. Thank you so much for the compliment. Really means a lot to me.
Schuttzie, it’s devastating how some beaches get trashed. Now I expect the “charged” beaches and the free beaches that are lined with businesses to be constantly maintained and clean. But it’s impressive to find local beaches, like the ones in Portland, just as clean or sometimes cleaner.
