Barbara -

A good friend's Mother gave Bill and I an old (little) book about St Maarten that she got on a cruise stop, along with a couple of postcards. Unfortunately, she doesn't remember when it was, but her son thinks from the 70's.

I love that little book, but you are welcome to the postcards if you don't already have them.

I'll get them to you next time we are down that way.

Bob, I want the real postcards LOL
you aren't gonna give those up though, are you? tongue sticking out smiley
I would like to see what you have..next time hopefully we can hook up.

re: tommy brookins..very interesting.. I received a call from an old friend of mine who used to have a TV show here and did documentaries. He has a whole documentary that he did years ago. I put him in touch with Tommy's niece and hopefully he can get a video to her somehow.
she was thrilled.
I also heard from another friend who told me that Laura, Tommy's wife,, the one in the kitchen, has gone back to Italy.
She had a boyfriedn after Tommy died and he is still here..so I have to get over to Marigot and check out your guy and this guy.
