$10 to kiss an iguana


While on an excusion back in December 2021, aboard a cruise ship to Puerto Costa Maya, Mexico we took a side trip by bus to a little private beach. We sat under a palm thatched polopa, met some other cruising friends from the ship, enjoyed a couple cold margaritas and I kissed an iguana. Yep, right on the top of his big prehistoric, scaly head! Why? I don’t know why, just acting crazy I guess. What does it cost to kiss an iguana in Mexico? Cost me $10!  I probably could have done it for nothing, but I was on vacation! So, I did it so there!

Covid has once again shut down the cruise ships. Traveling by any means has been affected by this stinking virus. It’s every where! The CDC says its here to stay in one form or anither. Well that’s encouraging! We adapt in one way or another I guess. We are vaccinated, and we are wearing our masks. We are trying to be cautious for our sake and for the sake of our family, friends and others. Not everyone is taking these same precautions. It’s complicated. I’m not in favor of forcing people to be vaccinated though. How will history record this current pandemic? Many will get sick and many will die, others will survive. We’ll see. Kissing an iguana? One of life’s little diversions to escape reality.

Bipolar Express

What is Bipolar Express ? Why did I choose to title this message "Bipolar Express?" For those that have symptoms of, or who are already suffering from the disorder known as; being bipolar --  having one's doctor accurately diagnose this medical condition as soon as possible is very important!  I want to help everyone who might be suffering from the extreme highs and lows of these mood swings by providing some direction to reliable resources.

Often feeling worthless or guilty all the time is not normal, may be a symptom of bipolar. 4. Work, family and/or social life is suffering. 5. At times, feeling very euphoric, revved up, and/or irritable. Dopamine: Science has shown th...

Texas' Big Bend Country

  How can I describe this snapshot of our Texas-Mexico border, taken on a trip we made to our Texas Big Bend country, other than spectacular ! We were driving Texas' state road 170 heading to Presidio from Terlingua. We were a little spooked since we were the only vehicle on the road. Along this section of the road, we didn't pass any other cars or trucks. I must say, this desolate part of Texas is just as rugged as it is beautiful! Every curvy turn of this lonely highway presented yet another picture postcard panorama. It would be hard to believe anyone would risk their life crossing such treacherous terrain, but I imagine some have, at one time or another. In the summer, temperatures go well into the hundreds and the dangers of heat exhaustion and death are very real! Diamond-back rattle snakes and scorpions happily make this desert their home -- we never saw any though. We held our breath while traveling on this deserted, stretch of road, not wanting to think of having any ...

Laminin - What holds us together

LAMININ. Today, my story is about Laminin, a tiny family of protein cells that is the sticky glue that holds our bodily tissue and microscopic cells all together. God's amazing creation! In our Bible, Colossians 1:17 reads: By Him (Yeshua) all things are held together. I believe it is by no coincidence that under an extremely powerful microscope we can see this little protein cell bears the shape of a cross ! (Graphic representation above.) There's more! I include these links below for my reader's convenience to more explicit information about this little Laminin fact. GOOGLE: "How Great is Our God Laminin Louie Giglio" A video featuring this great work of God! Louie describes our universe, and then, this amazing, tiny protein cell: LAMININ. Truly amazing! You will want to watch this video in its entirety. https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=the+cross+in+our+bodies+by+a+physician+louie+giglio&&view=detail&mid=46E7CD8941087BBD7BA546E7CD8941087BBD7BA5...
