I am going to attempt to keep a blog about my world travels. My daughter, Michelle and her husband Travis have been painstakingly teaching me how to use all this new technology. Since officially retiring, I have decided to travel the world, doing trips that allow me to experience the things I enjoy most; motorcycling, horses, polo, trekking, spending time with my friends, seeing new places and meeting new people.

Life and living is an Adventure- Enjoy the ride
Mike, Just returned from two weeks in India, travelling predominately between Mumbai, Delhi and a side trip to Nashik in the mountains. Words cannot describe the place, the people, the pulse of 20 million people (Mumbia) living in an area 1/2 the size of Toronto. Going to a business meeting 30 k from the hotel in rush hour takes 3 1/2 hours. Thank goodness for having a car and driver! On the other hand you and Shelly driving a rickshaw through that insanity, says something about...... (which I would not put into print)! LOL :-) And to add to the Chaos India is one great big construction site. Everywhere one goes all one sees are massive infrastructure projects! Look forward to hearing more on your return to Aurora! Warm regards

I'm constantly amazed at the fantastic vistas you get to witness, and your remarkable resilience through so many difficult conditions. Kudos, man. I especially love the blue boats against the foggy body of water. I'd love to paint that. Hope to see you when you get back to Aurora! Have a safe trip back.
