“Travel as much as you can. As far as you can. As long as you can. Life is not meant to be lived in one place.” -Unknown
We’re off for a little Christmas adventure with family and friends. We’re going to spend the next week on a private island off the town of Planecia in the southern part of Belize. Placencia is one of the most popular destinations in Belize. It’s a charming, low-key fishing village located at the southern tip of the Placencia Peninsula. Bordered on one side by a mangrove-lined lagoon and on the other by the Caribbean Sea. It’s famous for having some of the most beautiful beaches in the country.

Merry Christmas 2025

By on December 14, 2025 in The Pearl
It’s that time of year again when we like to reach out and tell all our friends and family hello and Merry Christmas. We had another great year splitting our time between Texas, New York and our wonderful little home in Lewisburg, PA. We didn’t do any large trips this year, just relaxing weeks on the lake in NY and a week in the Adirondacks in September.  

It’s hard to believe we are getting so old…the thing that makes it the most evident is looking at our grandchildren. All five are excelling in school and becoming interesting and entertaining young people. Our oldest turned 13 this year and our youngest is six.

I hope that all of you have a wonderful holiday season. We look forward to another year and hopefully we are able to cross paths with a few of you soon.
