Just Curious because sometimes I do

CMichael

Hi Lollard, We are going to report on every place in Panama. It just might take us a little while to get it all done, lol. The plan is to complete a report every two weeks. Sora is definitely on the list though. Thanks for checking out our ... Read More

Hi JadeB, Well it's great to meet a fellow Okie! I still have a lot of family in Tulsa and in Coweta (not sure if I spelled that correctly). There's a lot of info to give on Panama and it's hard to give you the real lowdown here in this forum. I've ... Read More
