Hi all....
Im back on the board after a three month break.
I was on a ten week trip through central and latin america as well as the Galapagos.....I went with Galpal1, her three sisters and their partners as well as her parents who wanted to celebrate their 45th anniv. by treating their family to an experience of a lifetime as opposed to storing it away as they have more than enough to live on for many years to come.....
Nice to be home though...finances are a bit behind....well a lot behind and taking time off without pay does not help but the experience was unbelievable and I have no regrets.....
Sad to read about Maryann...I have lots to read and catch up on as well as sorting where Im at financially
Look forward to catching up on what everybody has been up to.....

Woo - AWESOME!!
I love to travel and think it is a huge investment in yourself. Always gain valuable perspective and enriching experiences.
Glad to have you back tho,

Wow, that is amazing!!
Glad to hear you're back. Bills will always be there but that is a once in a lifetime chance :)

Sounds like you had a lot of fun! I would like to see those giant tortoises in their natural habitat one day. Welcome back.
PS. I hope Galpal1 was small_change. She's been missing since August, and we don't know how to contact her. We're worried about her.
Hey Duke, great to hear from you!
What an amazing trip. That is completely awesome!
We have some very dedicated people here this year that are making 2013 *their* year to pay off huge chunks of their debts. It is very inspiring I tell ya.
I am going to stay home with the baby until August then go back to work. Until then we are living off one income and some savings. I think we can make it. I am trying to slowly pay down the roof on the store, and our truck with regular payments and bits of extras. We have started a savings account for a new house and little tiny little gems go in there to keep us sane.
Looking forward to seeing more of you! I hope when you get organized we can root for you!
Welcome Back!!!
