About the Book

A Lifetime of Travel Stories 1971 - 2018

A Lifetime of Travel Stories is about my personal experiences while traveling through 21 European countries: two in Southeast Asia, two in South America, four in Central America, one in Africa, two in the Middle East, eleven Caribbean islands and several trips to Mexico.

There are several three month stays in New York City, Miami, Florida, Santa Fe, New Mexico, Ketchum, Idaho, and Charleston, South Carolina. I kept a journal of the different activities. These journals are the source for most of the stories.

Several trips were to render medical assistance to communities in north east Honduras. The largest one was Limón, inhabited primarily by Garifuna people. Another trip was to Nicaragua to help build a small house with Habitat for Humanity for a family in need.

There are a few fishing stories from: Ambergris, Belize, Ketchum, Idaho, Cayman Brac, Little Cayman, Grand Cayman, Wyoming, the Florida Keys, and South Carolina. Luckily, my oldest son Eddie traveled with me to fish in the Florida Keys and Ambergris, Belize. I was lucky again when my youngest son Scott was able to travel with me to Thailand and Vietnam.
My trip with Scott's family when they traveled to England for a week was a lot of fun. I surprised my grandchildren Morgan and Spencer. They did not know I was coming with them until they saw me walk into the gate area at the Atlanta Airport where they were waiting to board.

My daughter Jennifer traveled with me to England, Scotland, and France and a two week trip in Alaska. She was a big help in navigating one night during a heavy storm. She was only ten years old at the time.

My partner Cheryl and I have enjoyed traveling together since 2005. One time we traveled to the Middle East including Israel and Egypt. We were on the road for six weeks. It was exhausting but it was worth the effort. We are ready for this Corona virus Covid 19 to be under control so we can travel again.

Here are a few excerpts from this book:
During our drive back, I saw a water buffalo being used to plow a rice field. The field was next to the narrow rural road we were on. I asked the driver to stop so we could video the farmer plowing with his buffalo. That's when my guide Dan said, "In Vietnam there are three most important events in a man's life; first is when he marries; second is when he buys a house; and third is when he buys his first water buffalo. Page 214.

After several days, we took the night train back to Moscow. We cracked open the door to our sleeper because it was too hot. There was a bracket that held the door open but would have been impossible to reach from outside in the hallway. Anyway, some guy managed to open the door during the night. We woke in time to toss him out. Page 39.8

After fishing my favorite section; I walked down the entire creek bank nearly to the bridge. The beauty of this place is like a magnet. You can't get away from wanting to see more. With my aching back, my boots wet and my waders rubbing as I walked, I enjoyed another walk through this high desert plain along the banks of Silver Creek. Page 111.

The wind was high and the water too rough for snorkeling. That's when we saw a red 30 foot homemade sail/motorized boat with white canopy, a rag tag looking boat. It looked like it had run ashore and some folks were helping the crew with a front end loader to push her back to sea. We walked down the beach and stopped at the point where the vessel had run aground. We walked to the boat and saw immigration officials, police and a medical team helping seven roughly dressed, dark complexion folks who were passengers on the boat. P73.

There are 251 pages in this book and 99 photographs. The book is on the internet at Amazon.com.
