Congrats finally getting into and through Colombia!
Hi guys, I stumbled onto your website in December and then waited to hear more once the van was shipped from Panama. I have to say, I was a bit concerned ... I'm glad you finally had a good trip through Colombia. My wife is Colombian, so I've been many times and I'm always curious to hear what others say. I travel to other areas of South America, so I'll be looking forward to hearing more about your travels. I might add, I'm also an Airstreamer, so I have a vested interest in details about border crossings, etc.
Keep on rolling, I'm envious!

Hi to both, Obviously I have not looked at messages in long time. Did not know it was your 40th birthday, Jimmy....I remember your 21st even if you dont!!!!!
Hope you had a memorable time and drank the night away... Oh! that's right,,, not able to drink as much as you used to/not able to hold your drink as much as you used to...whichever!!!!
Well, christmas & new year are over now and you're back on the road so keep the diary going and looking forward to hearing more!!!!
Enjoy and talk soon.....

Hi Jimmy & Sheila - A quick note to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY James. If its anything like my 40th, you should re-surface in a couple of days. Have a wonderful day/night and enjoy it. All the best. - PS Sorry I missed your 30th Sheila but I'm sure you had a great time.

Hi guys hope this goes through because it didnt work the last time. Hope the two of you are doing good. Jimmy youre going to be the big 40 well what better way to spend it than on the road travelling you'll remember the fun you had forever. I spent my 30th in New Zealand with my house mates who were all South American and various other travellers and had the best birthday ever they even made me a Kiwi pinata full of sweets. You'll have some craic because if there is one thing I learned from living with 11 South American lads its that they know how to party. Nana Peg was down today she's in good form and mam and dad were asking for ye and send their love.
Anyway cant believe youre going to be 40 Jimmy have a fantastic birthday. Talk to you soon and sorry its taken so long. Remember keep it country.
Love ye

sorry i missed your call sunday but i had to work and didn't get ur message till late. alls well here, liam o got his first shiner the other day and looks like a real bruiser now. i'm sure erin will post a photo on her facebook page. where will you be for ur 40th? hows about xmas?great photos, looks like you've enjoyed a taco or two!! stay out of trouble, looks like yer having a great time. bears are lookin decent this year and may suprise a few come playoff time. birr are going strong at home in the hurling, they beat a dublin side well yesterday. liverpool looking good for a title at last, but chelsea are topping the table with them. calzaghe beat the crap out of roy jones jnr sat night in a pointless matchup. latest obama joke...how can 1 black man be expected to run the white house when 15 blacks cant even run a white castle? chat u later liam

7/31/2008 - something fishy
hey bog,
We seriously caught that fish, we are not messing. Every since we caught them we have been eating fish curry, fish tacos, battered fish, fish burgers, fish stew and then we started trading it for deer bolognese from Germany, bag of clams, steak dinner, fish eggs for bait. Jimmy asked the last campground if they would accept halibut for payment.
Janet you have to let us in on this tee shirt about the teeseach.
take care
sheila, jimmy and francie

tony always wanted to go
he has worked so hard with the move unfortunatly he will not be shipped there we are keeping him
give me an idea what it would have cost me to have you ship the fish to me and any other cost that might have occured ? might be something cost affective
i might do definitly when you get to chili dont hestitate to contact me about the wine

Hi Sheila & Jimmy
I was so surprised to hear from you both. I'm glad your doin ok and already in Alaska. Your so lucky to be traveling and seeing the world. I wish I thought of doing that before getting married, before settling down.
I love everyhting about our lives and to think back on the years, I wouldn't change it. Me & Eric have 2 boys and we're happy and that is all we need.
I'm glad I met you both. I missed you at the bbq though. I hope you'll make another visit to Inuvik again. I like your web page it's so cool. You can see my profile on bebo.com
I pray god will keep you safe on your travels & take care.
