Caribbean Night at the Palms

I am finding a whole new dimension to Caribbean Night at the Palms (at least for me). I started doing a weekly book signing at Caribbean Night in the Craft area and am having a ball. The women have been selling low cost gifts to locals, snow birds and tourists alike for years and collectively they are among the sweetest, happiest people on the island.

I started book signing in the Craft area about two weeks ago and it is a pleasure. I am not making a fortune and neither are the women. We are all having a good time selling low cost gifts for locals and visitors alike. Aside from my books, there is art, jewelry, home made soaps and more.

Over the years, I have posted many pictures of my family enjoying Caribbean Night at the Palms and I have always had a good time eating, being entertained by Tony Ramano, the Moko Jumbies, Kiki and the Flaming Gypsies and watching everybody do limbo and line dances. So this event ensures I go out and socialize once a week, not just with family. I am not sure how long I will keep it up, but definitely through Christmas and probably until summer. (except when I am visiting family in the states)

About John Boyd

I have been hiking the hills and beaches of St. Croix, Virgin Islands for over 35 years and in retirement, decided to become a Heritage Hiking Guide specializing in the local history, geology, plant life and environmental changes that accompanied all groups of settlers over the last 3000 years. Unfortunately, aging of my body has temporarily limited my aggressive physical activity and I am using my intrinsic curiosity to explore the very obscure history of St. Croix prior to World War I. The oldest recorded History was dominated by the actions of Absolute European Monarchs who claimed ownership of the Island. Of course, all their actions were reported upon by official scribes who were controlled by censorship. Regardless of the outcome, reports were always positive until the king was dead and a new monarch crowned.
