I used to live in old Harbour as a boy. My Grandpa was a Anglican minister in old harbour, St. Catherine. I love going back home next month with my wife, and have been back numerous times, have taken my son there also.
One of my favourite stories: We where at swimming with the dolphins, I walked up to wait for the bus, my wife was talking to a gentleman, as I was waiting for the bus the man came up to me put his hand out and said to me 'welcome home son'.
My wife had told him the story that I lived there as a young boy.
Made me feel wow!

Hi Mike,
Thanks for your submission my friend! Including that photo! Is it date on it saying December 1958? Wow!
Which one of the kid is you? Can I guess you are short boy at the front, second of my left?
Lol.
Unfortunately, I am having a little issue following your story though. I wonder if some of typed information got lost in submission; it seems broken.
Either way, thanks for the feedback. I do appreciate your feedback and passion for our beloved country.
Regards,
WG
