It's wonderful to hear about Evan Jones growing up in the Happy Grove area, adding yet another layer of historical richness to this place. Knowing that your dad attended Happy Grove High School makes it even more special and personal. We're truly honored to bring your hometown into the spotlight and share its beauty and stories with everyone. It's heartwarming to know that our work evokes such positive feelings for you. Thank you for sharing these precious bits of history and personal connections with us. We hope to continue making you proud and bringing good vibes with our explorations!
Hi Madge and Tom,,,the man with yam,,,maybe the yam is sold already😮in the past Hectors River use to be a vibrant community but due to urban drift the place is sleepy😮i use to work at Villa Juanita,,the property across from villa
Juanita belongs to Happy Grove High,,,Happy Grove High is one of the richest schools when it comes to land ownership,,,in the past Happy Grove High was for the elites,,,students could board,,,to this day they have teachers cottages,,?Happy Grove High is the 8th oldest school in Jamaica❤
Hello! It's so intriguing to hear about the man with the yam and the possibility that it might have already been sold. Your insights into Hectors River and its transformation over the years paint a vivid picture of the community's changes. Also, learning about Villa Juanita and the significant history and land ownership of Happy Grove High is absolutely fascinating. The background that it was once considered a school for the elite and still has features like teacher cottages adds such depth to our understanding of the area. It's these kinds of stories and details that make exploring places so enriching. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us and enriching our journey. We're grateful for the chance to learn from someone with such a deep connection to the place. Looking forward to sharing more discoveries and stories with you!

Love the shirt, where can I buy one?
Thanks for joining us. I got the shirt on Amazon years ago when we still lived in foreign. It might still be available if you search Amazon or Google it, or ask your wife. 😂🤣😂 Blessings ❤️🇯🇲❤️
Beautiful homes. I wonder why doesn't the whole community get together and fix the Road in there communities???. Don't wait on Government to do it.
Thank you for your kind words about the homes! It's a great point you've raised about community action towards road maintenance. Sometimes, logistical, financial, or regulatory challenges can hinder such initiatives, but it's definitely inspiring to see communities come together to improve their surroundings. It's a reminder of the power of collective effort. Hopefully, with increased awareness and support, more can be done locally. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Part of that road was scary. Thought u got lost ☺️🙏
Yes, that adventure got a little wild. We’re glad we got through safely. Glad you came along for all that excitement. Blessings ❤️❤️❤️

I used to get confused Portland and portmore. I thought it was the same place
I’m glad you’re learning about Jamaica by watching our videos. Blessings ❤️❤️
Portland is rural and Portmore is urban and somewhat boujee.
