Hows thimgs going steamboat? I was an EN-1, when I retired in "77. Kind of missed it at first, but was changing too
much for me. Good thing I did get out when I did. I had cateracts and they wouldn't keep me anyway. I'm VA disabled
now. I put 4 1/2 years on the LST, and it was one big adventure, 4 years on the Destroyer and was'nt all peaches
and cream. I spent 10 months in Veitnam, riding river boat, one problem with that, I was the only American on board. Some fun on that. Will close for now, take care all. Bob

My nephew blew out this morning with some really high wind gusts. We had a nice week-long visit in spite of the fact that due to some circumstances, he was unable to finish some business, which was the focus of his trip. He has an ailing wife and needed to get home.
I encouraged him to answer Steamboat's questions, and I checked daily for John's response. It never happened. A little disappointing to me.
Now, I'm reading that my Medicare (?) insurance will go up??? Or is it the supplement (?) will go up, according to Bob King. I'm a little confused. I changed to AARP (United Health Care Insurance Company) from Blue Cross/Blue Shield last January. The premiums for AARP are $20.00 less than BC/BS for the same coverage, so I'm confused about exactly what is going to cost me more? Bob mentioned AARP, but private insurances aren't going to be affected, are they?

Sorry for not answering your nephew, Cora, things been a little hectic here.
Bob must have some adventures to relate regarding his time on the river boats in VN. Anxiuos to hear them. I got out just before Nam got heated up, 1964. I had a brother go over in Army in '67, though. I hope he has a computer at home so he can check in with us.
Cora, don't believe anything going around the internet about health care. Most of it is lies. Only believe anything from a reliable source.
Stay well, both of Ya'll...
