Planning to Retire Soon!

If you are planning to retire in the Philippines soon, I suggest you visit several excellent websites on pro's and cons of retiring in the Philippines. However if you want to retire in the provinces, where life is simple, standard of living cheaper, less traffic congestion and pollution, availability of fresh seafood and vegetables compared to the big cities, my island province is the place for you! If this is your first time in my site, welcome. Some of the photos and videos on this site, I do not own. However, I have no intention on the infringement of your copyrights.

From My Facebook Page This Morning- The Joys of Aging


My Patio and Bougainvilla This Year at THD- Batman and Robin Loves to shindig on the Patio, everyday. 


I found this on My FaceBook Today! 

English Actress Dame Judi Dench said: “One day, a young woman asked me:
“What do you think about being old?” I thought aging was a gift.

I wouldn't change anything I have for a few less wrinkles and a flat stomach.
Who cares if I choose to read or play on the computer until 4 in the morning and then sleep until who knows how much?

Who cares if I dance alone listening to '50s music?
What if I later wanted to cry for a lost love? And if I walk on the beach in a bathing suit and walk my chubby body and sink between the waves, swinging at them, despite those still wearing bikinis... they'll be old too if they're lucky.

I'm proud that I lived long enough to have my hair done gray and to keep the smile of my youth, since there were still no such deep marks on my face.
I don't want to complain about what wasn't or worry about what will happen. For the time I have left, I will simply love life as I have done it to this day.''

Here's the website of the California Department of Aging for resources:


Meanwhile, yesterday, THD Newton's Restaurant had Mexican Gazpacho soup with baby shrimps that I really enjoyed!

Kudos to Agustin for a perfect Gazpacho soup for a warm summery night here in Walnut Creek, CA.
Not the actual soup photo but very similar of how the soup looked but with a sprinkle of Baby Shrimps, Yummy and Cool.
