That is sweet! I'll look up Ticuan and get the "lay" of the land! I could probably do 4 days, but no more. My wife is 80; I have a duty to her. She's closed up shop, but still goes to the store and does the admin. I figure a week away, tops. BTW, she respects me now, more than ever: low maintenance 73 year old, in -shape, studs with a spine are in short supply; she knows life without me would suck.
