CAVING IN NEW ZEALAND, UNIMAGINABLE SIGHTS

FINALLY WE MOVED INTO NEW ZEALAND FALL1990
We arrived! Finally we are going to see what the hype is all about. Geezus 4 million kiwis and 16 million sheep can’t be all that much fun, can it? We were assigned to the revamp of a pulp and…

Before I jump into New Zealand, I wanted to post a few videos of our time in Africa. They were shot wherever we journeyed and are 30 years old. They started on original VHS tapes, and over the years were…

Just when I thought I was safe after the coup attempt by the previous guest author (pair), another guest has popped up to join the literary world and dropped another jewel on me. Geezus will it never stop. Could it…
