Intro / Feature

Hi ,

Although Covid-19 continues to ravage businesses, one area/industry that seems to continue some activity, at least for now here, is building construction.

That's based on what I see around me, but also from the questions that come in on the website.

Today's feature is one such question that I think you might find helpful as well.

It came in from Natasha in Kingston.

Here's the question, with my (actually a friend of mine's) response:

Featured Video!

A few weeks ago I spoke to the article on surviving in Jamaica, remember? Well, I took a trip down the countryside, stopped by the spring and did a quick video for you.

Featured Jamaican Product

I might have shared it with you already but my associate, Kesha Stewart wrote a lovely piece on the health benefits of Jamaican cerasee and I can't help sharing with you.

Please read, and share!

Thanks again for your support my friend!
