    Re: Can I walk safely from Bloody Bay Beach to Long Beach?

    Usually some of the other locals here of these types they will deal with it, espeacially there are a few craft vendors by the fence in that area. This would be bad for business I am sure if they caught wind of it they would be checking out what is going on. Several tourists walk that path during season its rare that you would be the only ones on that path, things are different in the slow season. I did have one trip that there was a guy by the end of the beach that harassed me every day, something about a fee for passing. He was kind of chubby guy, never saw him around there since.
    Trip #59 most of February

    That guy has been there on and off for a few years. He can be intimidating at times and other times friendly...but always wants money or a beer or a sandwich or all the above. I have had more than one confrontation with him. Usually after the first occurance(each trip) he leaves me/us alone.
    Just a few weeks ago I busted him twice, I walked up quietly while he was busy. The first time he was on a phone, hehe, he asked for a sandwich, I said, lots of places deliver, just give them a call and pointed to his phone...he wasn't happy.
    The next time he was counting a HUGE wad of cash, I guess from folks who gave him what he demanded, he looked like the cat who swallowed the canary! before he said anything I asked...hey mon, can I have 100J ?......I'm sure the words I heard were insults, but didn't understand.
    His newest thing is trying to sell cheap ass bracelets. But then wants the other stuff anyway. After the first few days he was gone. I didn't know why until I noticed a Police speed trap on the road practically right next to his hideout. I suppose he left cause of the popo.
    Stand your ground.
    Soon come!
