My turn
My history is I worked as a Ironworker out of local 492 and did everything from being a "worker bee" to a superintendent. 30 years of wear on the body and reaction times and balance getting worn out I retired from ironwork. I had been fooling with computers since 1996 and turned in a resume for a simple help desk job never thinking they would hire me at my age but they did.
So 6 years later I am working a help desk supporting about 9 websites, some internet, some extranet and some intranet.
Total newbie to Negirl, Beth and I (Larry aka kylake) have traveled to several Caribbean islands over the years but mostly Isla Mujeres, Mexico. After 9 years at Isla I needed a change to become a tourist again. Negril was the pick and I am just learning the "runnings" as they are called and I like the place since historical Negril is unknown to me.
Are there problems in Negril and Jamaica?, sure but most any 3rd world country has problems of one kind or another and unless you have a historical view of the place you might not notice (as much), simply an new tourist and that is mostly our situation.
New trip just around the corner and "soon come" as they say for another "reach".
Seriously I have taken about 3 selfies in my life but here is one from last year of the both of us at Sun Beach next to CoCo, we had done a long walk that day and started back and stopped to eat there.
