On the morning of January 14, 2018, walking the docks at the beautiful Queenstown, New Zealand, we passed a throng of young ladies. Obviously, they were the bridal party in jubilant celebration of an upcoming wedding. Yvonne quickly exclaimed, “come on, let’s get away from this gaggle”, and I gleefully obliged.

My How Beautiful I Am!
Sometime in the early 2000s, we were visiting my father in law, Ed Dodd, in Athens, GA. My sister in law and brother in law, Marie and Jim, lived just up the hill about 50 yards away. Soon after our arrival, we noticed a pretty redbird that would fly constantly between a tree and Ed’s […]

Stolen from my TripAdvisor review … We have been to Maui 3 times and have dined at Mama’s Fish House on each trip. Every time we walk away with mouth-watering memories of the most delicious food on the planet. On our latest taste of heaven, I had the Mahi Mahi stuffed with lobster and my […]
Stolen from my TripAdvisor review … This was our first stay at a Four Seasons resort, as the final 2 nights of a 17 day, 4 island Hawaiian celebration of our 25th wedding anniversary. Our only disappointment was not having stayed for a week, instead of 2 nights. From the time we arrived at the […]

The condo was a very nicely remodeled and decorated unit that we suspect is one of the nicest on the east side of the island. […]

We had stayed at neighboring hotels before and endured the long, arduous hike to snorkel at Black Rock, but we had never actually stayed at the Sheraton. Our ocean […]
