To date, I'd grade myself about a “B-." Interestingly, my goals haven’t really changed.
In some ways (war, pandemic, loud politics) the world has changed, but in many ways it has remained the same for eons. During the past six years, Judy and I have traveled over 200,000 miles, visiting lots of countries, and parts of our own for the very first time (and, no, we are not ready to settle down). As we've tried to illustrate in 370 blog posts, this is truly an amazing planet filled with fascinating people.
Here's a bit from a post in January of 2017:
“And what is my greatest expectation? Making the acquaintance of wonderful people all over the world and enjoying unexpected rendezvous with friends and family!”
That dream has certainly come true!
What’s in store for 2023? We will be traveling a bit slower and learning more about places we know and love; first New Zealand and Australia and then Europe in the fall.
Lots of rendezvous are being scheduled for which I will permit myself to temporarily replace my water consumption with wine. And, as always, we will find time to hang out with grandsons!
Judy and I wish you joy and good health in the coming year.
