I searched all over (but obviously not well enough) for a thread like this that I thought existed. Thanks to the newsletter....I am now found.

I originally found this forum because I was looking for someone to give our companion certificate to before it expired 2 months ago, but one of the nice mods explained I needed 60 posts and a few months before I could access that forum.

So I am starting small (I might not make 60 posts by the time it expires again next year. poo. oh well, I will keep pluggin along)...

Howdy, my name is Funk but I like going by Funky (much more fun!) and only recently started to travel by air instead of car. It was nothing for me to drive from Portland to Canada, California, Idaho, Utah, Colorado in search of some water to white water kayak or scuba dive.

However a recent trip to Bonaire to dive has me trying my pea pickin little heart out to gain more miles so we can get back there without buying 2 $1,100 tickets again!

Have a great weekend everyone...I am off to Utah (driving, haha) for my uncle's funderal since bereavement fares prices are not in my comfort zone
