I just saw a 19 year old win a million dollars on a game show. Imagine how different any of our lives would be if that had happened to us? I wonder if I would have moved to Belize or would I have landed in a different Tropical location instead. I can say for sure it likely would not have taken me so long to get there. I finished up my work early today so I could do out with Dick and Paula to celebrate his b ...

Yesterday was a day of New Beginnings and Happy endings.I will start with the happy ending first. Last week on the way to Dick and Carole's place I found a drivers license at the end of one of the canals. After checking the online phone book when I got home and not finding a match I figured next step was to make a post on the Ambergris Caye Message board.  Sure enough I had 2 people make contact with me to ...

It all started at our nuevo team meeting yesterday afternoon.

We all laughed when he passed it around for us to read - ' I know you are in a meeting but it's the most perfect day to  skydive' [smiley face ...

Charlie Chaplin's coffin was stolen (1978), and Nostradamus completed the preface to his book Centuries, and sent it to his publisher (1555) - ...

The Parade starts at 7pm and the parade route has the boats boats going f ...

Sometimes I think about life in terms of reading a really good book. You just never know what the next chapter holds - often it is filled with interesting changes and strange surprises. I woke up early and managed to catch the last 2 h of coast this morning - very interesting. Guest J. Richard Gott - a professor of astrophysics at Princeton University is talking about his studies of cosmology and his work w ...
