    Other aspects of Cuba

    To go along with my post on the cars of Cuba, thought I would put up a few photos and a little info about the rest the country. First, I was very surprised at how open the people were to talk politics and to be critical of their government. Talking with a farmer he explained that they have to...

    The cars of Cuba

    That is exactly what parking lots look like! I haven't heard that, and talking to the Cubans I doubt that is true. Even if they had an auto industry, which they don't, not sure why they would choose to build a 60 year old style. They also represent a very wide range of models, years and...

    The cars of Cuba

    Here is the '56 Pontiac we had for the week. They are owned by the drivers, who then must get licensed to drive for the state-run taxi company. They do charge based on how nice the car is.

    The cars of Cuba

    My wife and I recently returned from a little over a week in Cuba. Trip as a whole was amazing, being one of my favorite travel destinations to date. And the classic cars of Cuba, especially in Havana, did not disappoint. In and around Havana, I would estimate that 25% or so of the vehicles...

    Bring *all* the tinfoil hats for this one...

    I only hear people claim they are wrong based on who supposedly owns the site, but have yet to see anyone prove being factually wrong or found them making claims that I have looked up that are different than other sites.

    Funny how a fact checking site is declared biased or lying if what they are saying disagrees with your thought process instead of considering the possibility you may be wrong.

    Rafting in Moab? Need advice

    Looks like we did our last minute arrangements through Canyon Voyages Adventure Company, or so I am told. They were very helpful and flexible to bail us out from our poor planning.

    Rafting in Moab? Need advice

    Trying to remember who we rented from for our youth church group last summer (trying to find out). They were great in that we had a couple of rafts we brought with us that we decided would not be safe enough so had to scramble last minute. Ended up being able to put together a package of rafts...

    "The American Life Is Killing You"

    One of the things my wife and I talk about is the idea of a 'home base' post retirement. I like the idea of having a place to call home between trips, especially were the kids (and grandkids once they enter the picture) can gather. Probably will always want to keep horses, so that will be a...

    "The American Life Is Killing You"

    As a veterinarian, I hear many of my cohorts complain about the long hours and lack of time off. My question is always "then why do it"? I was fortunate to start my career with a mentor/business partner who values time off so we have always structured the business that way. We could earn more...
