i particularly liked our
grand lady hostess for our rental in congo town, ms. rosalita davis.
her husband died a few weeks before our arrival. they had been
married 65 years. she couldn't bring herself to visit his grave that
was in a small cemetery about 1/4 down the road. still, she always
had a smile for us, happy words, and an "amen" to share. in addition,
she cooked and gave to us conch fritters and bread. a beautiful lady.
her son jerry lived next door. he is a talented wood carver. danl and
i bought some of his works for our spouses... very handy. he was an
interesting guy to talk with as well.

Nice TR, Jeff. It's really all about the people you meet and with whom you
share time and stories, isn't it?

it was a facinating trip and new fishing for me. danl and willi are
simply the best folks to share a trip with... the happiness and
friendliness of the bahamian people we met, despite living in pretty
desperate economic conditions, was an eye opener.
