36. “I wonder what the Rockefellers are doing today?”

My dad would say this when he was sittin’ pretty on a boat or fancy restaurant. This NIPA.. season start up reminds me of that statement. The cover view is from a resort in Cebu that we stayed at when we entered the country. We met our youngest daughter here as she was passing through from a business trip and wanted to kick back. A little libation and some simple snorkeling was just the way to jumpstart NIPA-although it did come with a little sunburn.

A week of resort living and a few days at Radisson Blu was enough for us and it is off to the house and “Nipa Hut and Beyond.”
