Working after 70 - It's not a lifetyle necessity, it's a life necessity. And I will first publish a blog about it... then maybe follow up with a video later on. But in the meantime, head on over to the blog @livinginthepacific.com . New posts arriving daily!

We recently become proud owners of a pool table. Used, but nonetheless, a pool table. I found a pool table mechanic here in the Philippines and he's hard at work for us giving our table a makeover, just so we have something to do... when there's nothing else to do!

We are home in Samar for the Holidays and once again, this New Year's Eve is proving to be the noisiest place on earth. If you've ever seen videos of fireworks over Manila, you will understand. The province isn't any quieter by any imagination. Between competing karaoke, boga cannons, fireworks, party horns, and everyone revving up their motorcycles, come midnight... it's a steady stream of continuous quadraphonic noise and sleep deprivation is once again on the menu. We are definitely living on an angle in a parallel universe. Happy New Year to all our Subscribers and followers this special noisy night!
