The Time Has Come... Remember the old anti-drug commericals: "This is your brain...this is your brain on drugs"? We've revised that statement to: "This is your life...this is your life in a box!" Because this is indeed is our life for the next 15 months or so...two backpacks, three small boxes of clothes, and Hungry. Thank you so much to all our dear friends and family who have supported us, visited with us, and made these last few weeks in Florida a wonderful send-off!! You will all be missed very much. So, without any further ado, we go to ship our [View Full Entry]

It is a terrible affliction that began in my childhood with long summer trips out west to visit my brother...gradually got worse as I began visiting cool places like Panama, Canada, and New England...and officially hit me full-on the first time I went to Europe (S [View Full Entry]

Currently in-between travels, on an extended visit to the Palm Beaches. Interesting the difference in the attitudes between those in California and those in Florida. In California, people get it. They want to save a great deal of money and misery so they come in right away for healing sessions, first, and go for it. Or they are overall fine and just want to rest on the table, or go to the ocean, or to dissolve oodles of stress, and free-up the fluid, core system around the spine. These in the trade are called, "well patients," and/or clients. They also get [View Full Entry]

In 48 hours, I'll be onboard the plane to San Juan, Puerto Rico, where the true journey will begin. But before crossing that ocean, a few days of living the simple life to recharge my batteries in southern Florida is in order. I'm also having great fun clicking my new new Canon camera at everything. After tennis yesterday, NitaJean and I loaded up the Mercedes and drove to Hutchinson Island (across the bridge from Jensen Beach) for some sand and sandwiches. No sooner had we unloaded and dug our toes in to hit the beach, the lifeguard raised the red flag [View Full Entry]

Got a call from the Captain, asking me to meet the boat in Charleston, SC on the 31st of May. Of course! Pack some "going out" clothes, and a computer. I have no idea what to expect, what type of crew is already on board, where I'll be sleeping, or what I'll see. This is a good start into the yachting industry. As a temporary deckie, I have a lot to learn this summer. We are planning on heading north to NYC and Long Island, around Halifax, Nova Scotia, into the St. Lawerence Seaway, and through a series of locks. The [View Full Entry]

To celebrate our 35th anniversary, we took a three day detour to Florida on our way home from ABWE Meetings in PA. From a contact through www.sermonaudio.com/wftw we were able to stay in a Resort Home in West Palm Beach. Here are a few photos of our short vacation. [View Full Entry]

With my Degree in hand (YAY!) I'm off to travel the world! This particular post is my dedication to Florida. If this seems too much like a "myspace" blog for which I'm not to fond of, then please, feel free to skip to the next one. However, if you have been part of my life here in Florida, you might want to read this. Now that I'm leaving, I can spill all your dirty secrets, and you won't know where I live! HAHA! (unless your name is Dorraine, and you don't have dirty secrets-you're just dirty!) What I love about Florida [View Full Entry]

I spent three more days with Eileen and Steve not doing too much of anything. I would get up in the morning, sit by the pool and then hang out in the evenings with them. Eileen and I managed to do all of the things we used to do together back in the day - eat lobsters, play games at a bar, watch movies (actually, she would watch and I would fall asleep), gamble, get too much sun and hang out solving each other’s problems. It was a very nice time and a great break - very relaxing and just what [View Full Entry]

I took the train on Easter Sunday to West Palm Beach. It’s about an hour train ride. I was going to met some friends from Grand Turk in West Palm and have some supper with them. So I started my way to Joe and Loretta’s house. Joe has this world class bar in his back yard. It’s my second time being there. Well I got there around 4 Pm on Sunday. Joe had some Ice cold beers ready for me right as I get there. We sat in his bar and few beers before we started the BBQ and cooked [View Full Entry]
