Bill - Good introduction. I am looking forward to the series. I was born in Chicago and spent several summers on a farm in Leonidas Michigan on the St Joseph river. Does that ring any bells with you? - Jerry

    I looked it up. I have heard of the name Leonidas, and I see St. Joe*s River starts at Lake Michigan. Looks like a nice plac3 on Google.

I enjoyed your prologue to your book, and look forward to reading about your adventures in those other countries. You did a good job with this info. You entice readers to read what will be posted next.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

Sounds interesting. You certainly saw several parts of the world, not all of them tourist spots. It's interesting to read about other people's travels, as I've never been outside of the U.S., except to Canada. They say being in the military gives you a chance to see the world, and in your case it surely did. Happy travel writing. judi

Sounds interesting. I am wondering if you were involved in the Gulf War when you mention Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. My children and I were evacuated from Riyadh prior to the Gulf War. My husband had to stay to complete his contract. Thanks for posting.

I look forward to reading about your trips to these countries. I've not been to most of them. I have been to Canada and Mexico and little bit of France. I've been to a few you didn't mention like Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Germany, Vatican City, Lichtenstein and Bahamas. My husband was in Japan and Korea when he was in service.

This should be interesting. I will follow in your footsteps, Bill as you retrace your travels .I only went O/seas once to the USA. It was 26 years ago before I became a grandparent. One of the first things my (Ex) daughter-in-law said to me
welcoming me back home was " You're going to become a grandma!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She laughed at my expression and said, "At last I've found something to stop you in your tracks."
Twenty six years later her "baby bump" is a qualified teacher with an enjoyable career ahead of her. I look forward to your future postingswith happy anticipation. cheers Cass

This looks like it will be a very interesting book, a travel adventure log.

Your prologue does a good job setting out where your travels have taken you and where the reader will be able to follow.

Good job.

I am looking forward to reading about your travels to other countries. Your essays on the states were interesting and informative and foreign countries will be a great topic to write about.
