Don’t expect anything fancy here, beyond having a case of beer chillin in the fridge when you arrive. But we also don’t put on ‘airs’, or whatever the word is either.
We are just not that type operation or that type people. We provide good vacations for those who are of like mind and we do it well.
Eight years ago we got into business with some folks to manage their similar operation. It’s a long and very interesting story how that came about, but I will spare you for now.
We jokingly referred to this property as Barnacle Bill’s North. Eight years we managed it for the owners.
Then, suddenly last Saturday we got our termination letter.
Dropped like an empty Belikin bottle.
You always hear about the big corporations who are not making the profit they want, so they fire the guy from the mailroom. Must be his fault. Well, this is similar.
But, there are not going to be any ‘fuck you’ posts (other than this one), to discredit their business.
We had to lay off the girl who helped Mrs. Barn clean and we can no longer afford to keep our yard man/general worker employed.
To me it’s all good. When one door closes, a new better one opens.
So, Mrs Barn and I, more her than me, are actively seeking employment.
I intend to One, finish the stripper pole bike, or more favorably, become a gigalo. (no fisting)
Seriously tho,,
We are open to suggestions.
Oh, and by the way, I just made THE BEST pizza on the peninsula! So there.

Sounds like it's about time to open that business venture we discussed on the empty lot you own across the road. Or any of the other ideas I have bouncing around in my head!
But.....if there aren't any people there....it's hard to make money off imaginary people!!
Breaking news - according to official sources, Belize is now in a recession.
Well, join the crew. We're at 12% unemployment up here in South Carolina. For some reason I have not been asked to retire early --- yet! We did just get the new plant to build the 787 Dreamliner for Boeing, but that is at the other end of the state. All we got up here is BMW... but that is huge.
Still think you might get into more "fixin" stuff, you know, like appliances or cars. I put in a good word for you with Dave Rider yesterday -- hope that helps. *grin*
Seriously, would love to come pay a paying visit but I've used up all my vacation for the year. So we'll see about next year.
Hang in there, Barn!!

I met these people once. First impressions were not very favorable.
I understand how they would be happier if they were associated with a fancier place than yours. They seemed to be that type.
