Like so many others we love to travel and we love to sail so cruising makes a lot of sense. Janice has retired from Cornell as a business manager and Bob has retired from South Seneca school district as the high school principal. It's time to sell the house, get rid of whatever doesn't fit on our 40 foot Caliber LRC named Tsamaya (this means Travel Well in Setswana) and set off to see the world.

thanks!
great to hear from you! Just the other day we were talking and thought about you two and wondered where you are, how you are doing and also how are the book sales going? I have a HS friend that is an author and guess that got us thinking - gee, we actually know a couple of authors personally now. Funny what things can trigger various memories and of course it came back to Trinidad and meeting you and others there. Nice that you are still following along and that your names pop up at times
