I know I have my stores a little mixed up.

That is okay, it is a new year and I know I will make even more mistakes coming. I just got back from the Junkanoo paraded. I didn't get there until late morning. It starts at 1am. I got out there around 7:40am. This will go on until around 11am. Depends on how fast the group RUSH through. You can see a couple of pictures that I have taken of this. Folks I have been to, four of these. So I just go down now to up date my pictures and just watch for about a hour and then get back home and enjoy some more chicken souse.

Just think about it, I told you this starts at 1am then ends around 11am the same day. That is a lot of outfits and families. The reason I say families, is that is what the groups are called. Example, Roots, Saxens, Valley Boys and One Family too. There are ,(I think 6 Families) Plus there are others too that just love to get into a costume and Rush with the big boys. Folks these people work on this starting in Feb again, 2009, for next years.

I had a opportunity to help out my cousin.

It has been a while since I have trimmed and cleaned out her gutters too.  Oh, the reason I am here now is because Jeanne and her sisters pl...
