In Ocho Rios right now, and the island is about to get hammered. If you’ve never been, it’s a very poor country, with little to no building codes, and some homes literally made of scrap plywood, and leftover materials. It’s gonna be a really rough go for the people here, and it’s so sad.
We could have left a couple days early, but I vowed to stay later and use my construction skills if needed. In the morning we will be locked in our room for the duration of the storm. It’s not the first hurricane we’ve endured, but it’s not me I’m worried about. The people here will be devastated if this continues at this rate.
Luckily we bought another shroom candy bar before the dispensary closed. So our plan is to stay in the room, but leave the planet for a while!
Please pray for Jamaica, and hopefully see you guys on the flip side! [Reply]

Prayers and respect for Coochie and those unfortunates in the path of this monster. [Reply]

Yeah, I was looking at going on vacation to somewhere in Central America/ The Caribbean this winter... after some brief research, Jamaica was quickly removed from the list. [Reply]
