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.....
