AmbergrisCaye.com Home Forums Talk Belize Chat Area Board names

After I come back from a week down there my friends here in Denver need a translator. One of my ex-Okie friends took his new wife back to meet his family. She said she learned a lot of new words. She'd never heard the word "tumped". I asked her if she'd spilled something and she laughed.

I am just now looking at this; thanks!

ExOkie,
One of my cronies lived in Cuchara Valley, Colorado, and called himself a CIO-Colorado Improved Okie. I always got a kick out of that.

Way back when this board first started I was "dream tripper." It was before Barb's Belize had even been born and I was just a regular travel agent in Woodstock NY who fell in love with Belize, started selling a lot of Belize to my off the beaten track clients, and answered questions about hotels, etc here. Moved to Texas, had another baby and decided to start my own "Belize only" travel business on my home computer and registered as Barbara K, not very creatively. Eventually I got booted off for promoting myself without paying for an ad (suggested/demanded by a 'certain hotelier' ;-) when I recommended Playdor over Coconuts). So I sent Marty a bunch of Belize pictures I had taken, and some words & ideas and got him to make me a website. The rest, as they say, is history! Been selling Belize only for 11 years now (and am now good friends with said hotelier!)
