Interesting article in the AARP Bulletin for March on phone scams: if you get a one-ring call and you want to call back to see who it is - don’t; especially with area codes 268, 284, 473, 649, 664, 767, 809, 829, 849, or 876. These are usually international calls and cost an arm and a leg.

Bravos go out to Mickie Martinelli for speaking at the Oklahoma State Capitol on changing legislation for criminal records. She did an excellent job!

Michael and Maureen McKibban have returned from a two-week vacation. They cruised through the Panama Canal and Maureen said they could almost touch the side of the locks. At Ocho Rios in Jamaica they floated down a cool and shady river on a bamboo raft. They enjoyed the coolness. The ship docked at a lot of the islands. In Cartagena, Columbia, the old walled city built by the Spanish was interesting. Back to the USA and Harry Potter World in Orlando, Florida where they took the train to Hogwarts. The special effects on the ride were great. They had a Butterbeer and did some shopping. The school was not built yet which was disappointing. It was a fun vacation.
