Welcome to Las Vegas, Nevada- the Gambling Capital of US and the City that never sleeps! So, what has this city have to do with this site. The answer is none. I just love the photo, I took during our vacation to this city a couple of years ago. In this site, you will find articles from my autobiography, global warming, senior citizens issues, tourism, politics in PI, music appreciation and articles about our current experiences as retirees enjoying the "snow bird" lifestyle between US and the Philippines. Your comments will be highly appreciated. Some of the photos and videos on this site, I do not own. However, I have no intention on infringement of your copyrights. Cheers!

Are You Interested in Other Religious Holidays Besides Your Own?

The 2022-2023 Christian, Jewish and Islamic Holiday Days Calendar

In my recent posting ( Carenna's being spotlighted in the school newsletter), I mentioned that the Elliott School Staff Newsletter printed the 2022-2023 Religious Holiday Calendar that I found interesting.  If you are not narrow-minded or a religious bigot, you may also found this list informative. A Lot of these Holidays, I have not heard before. However since I am a Christian Roman Catholic, I am familiar with all Roman Catholic Feast Days listed in the calendar below. Let me know if you find this list interesting and Informative.
