  1. I try my best to live a stressfree life.I am in my 80’s and it has worked so far,
  2. In 1970 my wife and I did a cross country tour of the US stopping in 43 cities. In 1976 we did a cross country tour in Canada.
  3. After completing my education I worked non profit all my life and salary was never a factor.In 57 years of marriage my wife and I never haggled .We only bought two houses and lived in 2 apartments and accepted the prices because we believed they were affordable.
  4. My youngest daughter and her husband were on an escorted land trip to Peru in 2019.It was a group of school teachers.They too were told they were expected to haggle.
  5. I have only bought two cars and there was no need to haggle.

  9. Happy St.Patrick’s Day to all who celebrate.Many years ago I entered a poetry competition sponsored by Paddy’s Irish Whiskey. I did not win a cash prize but I did win a certificate reading Leonard ……….Honorary Irish Poet.I also received a letter advising that if I brought the certificate to a bar that served Paddy’s whiskey I would receive a free beverage. There was an Irish bar close to where I was working and I brought it in .I received a shot of whiskey.The certificate was then framed by me and I hung it on a wall in my office. Later on it hung on a wall in the bar in my then home.Currently it is in my closet .
  10. The only food I ever ate that had a horrible odor was pickled pigs feet.The grandmother of a childhood friend was visiting from Jamaica,BWI and I did not wish to offend her by not trying a food that she prepared.It tasted awful to me.

  18. For approximately 10 years we used a TA that offered discounted cruises because they booked only groups.We knew other people who were in groups on the cruises.
