Well...this is kind of a surprise for me!  I found this Blog by some strange intervention because I do not remember starting this blog nor do I recall putting all of this together.  I must have been a busy person.  I had considered opening back my web site at jatexas.com but the URL is still for sale for $3800. US Dollars....of which I will get NONE.  Go figure!

Anyway it is September 3, 2021 and I have a few things to update but will only start with this:

We are still alive and as well as we can be having been in lockdown since our last Carnival cruise which ended Feb. 22, 2019, the day we found out about Covid 19 from our President.  We went into "Lock Down" mode at once...and have not truly come out.  It has been a trip for sure.  We have learned to mask, distance, check our temperature and O2 Sats every day and yes we learned to survive alone.  We curb side shop a lot and eat out very little.  Our next cruise is April of 2022.

The photo I will try to post is from our last cruise on the Carnival Vista taken by one of the amazing photographers on board ship.  

My bride of 47 years, Shari Angelo and me somewhere on the ship with a fake background.
