Merry Christmas - 12/27/01 02:24 AM
Happy Holidays everyone. Trixie hopes you all are getting exactly what you wish for.
Marty....I wasn't too happy about you deleting my last posting, I thought we were friends....My postings are for the purpose of entertainment and information to those who like to hear the rumblings of what's happening on the Caye. I have no desire to get into a debate about my localness etc.... Enjoy.
Christmas came & went without fireworks...it was blah....No Christmas lights hung across the streets like the 10,000 lights strung across San Pedro's streets. No live bands showed up to play in the park like tradition of yesteryear. It was just another day and if I even overheard many people asking as they normally do "do you know what day it is???" How could we miss Christmas?
Went to Sandbox, no little reindeers hanging across the bar and tequila shots miraculously appearing as it use to be when Mary Jo & Tom were there. Paz our favorite insulting bartender has jumped ship and gone to work at Seaside Cabanas bar. It was just another day in Sandbox and not many people so we left. Went up to I & I and they had a little crowd. Hung out with Sal for a little while, caught up and sang a few carols while trying to get into the spirit.
Headed about 9:30 to Oceanside where there were about 10 people in there. Tried to get the few patrons there off the table and on to the floor. I call myself the 'social director' of the island. It is my job to make sure everyone has a good time with nice clean fun. It was like pulling teeth and so I left at 10:30 pm. So much for Xmas!!!! My friends stayed out till 4:00 a.m. and so they say it got better as the night progressed.
Christmas Day, all my friends and some tourists got together and filled Jimmy's Sailing boat with goodies and headed to the reef. It was the most beautiful, magical day we could have asked for. The day was calm with little wind and we just puttered at a slow pace with no care in the world. We went through the channel and were on the 'blue' side of the reef where we jumped in the water and just floated along with the boat. The water was crystal clear like a sheet of glass and the tourists marvelled that they could see all the way at the bottom of the sea in most areas. We had a blast!
It's boxing day today and most people are in bed lieing around. The weather has turned a bit dark & cloudy and we are all keeping our fingers crossed that it wont rain on New Years Eve. Our regular posse have already chartered Stone Crab sailboat to go to Ramon's New Years Eve bash with Gilharry Band. We plan to dock out front & party away. I am talking to God regularly about the weather.
Will keep you posted with more ramblings providing some idiot doesn't spoil this topic with stupid comments.
Till Later..
