My Travel Story

So, my wife, Jeannie, beat throat cancer last year! It was, of course, a huge slap in the face to us both on how short and fragile life can be! Now we want to "live" and experience as much as we can in the few years we have left and while we are still young enough to travel safely! I'm Army retired and disabled so our finances are not great so we are hopeful to get some kind and caring help with our "celebration of life" trip! I was in Panama for Operation Just Cause back in 1989/90 and want to show Jeannie some of the places I was in back then. The people of Panama were so good to us back then and I can't wait to visit and experience them today!

  • New Plan!

    So, instead of going to Panama only we are now going on a 9 day cruise that will make one of it's stops in Panama! A cruise will be more manageable for Jeannie as her strength is not what it was before the cancer.
