Retired in the Philippines

These are videos of my life in the Philippines. In 1979 I went to Guam to be a missionary. I travelled in the Philippines in 1980 and went to seminary in Baguio in 1981. After returning to the U.S. I missed the Philippines and wanted to return. It took 40 years for that dream to come true. I met my wife online and then in person when she came to the U.S. for a tour. We got married in the courthouse and over a year later I retired and we moved to the Philippines. We spent the following year building my wife's dream house near her parents' house in Tacloban City, where we now live. We designed it to have a music room/office/man cave. I bought a piano for it and display the few records I shipped here, all my music books and other books, and many of my dad's paintings. We are involved in our UCCP church and that is where I have found friendships and opportunities to serve, through choir and home group leadership. We have a couple of good pastors and wonderful ministries for women and men. For 2 years I longed to have another motorcycle, so I began a careful study of what I would like to buy. I couldn't bring myself to have a typical small scooter with CVT. I wanted to shift and have some power. But mostly I wanted a very low seat height. In May of 2023 I purchased a 2018 Honda CMX500 (Rebel 500), a 471cc manual shift motorcycle. So, now I spent my time at home enjoying computer games, practicing the piano, studying and composing music, and riding my motorcycle.
