Carlsbad Caverns (October 12th 2014)
Today we are on our way to see Carlsbad Caverns National Park in the Guadalupe Mountains of
New Mexico. Our first stop on the way to the caverns was the George S. Pattom Memorial Museum
at Chiriaco Summit off Highway 10 near Indio, both Mayra and I found it interesting and informative,
I was surprised to see how interested Mom was about everthing on display at the museum. Next stop was
Casa Grande in Coolidge, Arizona, also interesting, for me anyway. We spent the night at the LaQuinta
inn inn Tucson AZ.

Julian’s godparents, Vitina and Mark and Luca’s Deanna and Mike. Both Mayra and I are elated to have all four of our
grand-children baptized and look forward to share with them our religion, culture, family and traditions. God, parents

Science Center (June 8th 2014)
I haven’t had the oppurtunity to visit Pompeii, so when the California Science Center decided to bring some of the itams found there to Los Angeles,
I along with Mayra, Carola, George, Elizabeth and John decided to go and visit this very interesting display. The exhibit showed how a
large population center with an fully functional economic and social system can within hours, simply be destroyed by natural events completely beyond
control of man. Very sobering. Researchers believe that the town was founded in the seventh or sixth century BC and was captured by the Romans
in 80 BC. By the time of its destruction, 160 years later, its population was probably approximately 20,000, and the city had a complex water
system, an amphitheatre, gymnasium and a port.

Long Beach (June 8th 2014)
Today I went on a beautiful and fun boat ride to Long Beach with Mark and Anthony. Once at the shoreline Village we walked around to see some
of the wild life, pellicans, sea gulls, crabs etc.. We also got to see some fantastic views of the Long Beach Harbor and had fun walking
around every tree I and Anthony encountered along the way to the lighthouse. Thank Anthony for taking me along on this trip and for wanting
to be n’coddu with me,
