My screen name
One of the reasons for the first part of my screen name is a nod to my father's last active duty service on a U.S. Navy warship, which was a Destroyer Escort. The digits are my college class numerals.
The other reason for the use of the term "escort" is that from time to time, I accompanypaying clients ladies I am dating to various exotic locations. It is usually time well spent.
One such trip I took a few years back was to the Four Seasons on the beautiful Caribbean island of Nevis (part of the country of St. Kitts & Nevis). I stayed there for a week with an interesting British woman with a rather stressful job as the Sr. VP of a publicly held company in a travel-related business. Here we are in the library-bar of the hotel:
The hotel rooms were equally well appointed, though of course we wanted to balance the time spent outdoors and in the room.
The assignment lasted a few more months, untilthe client's her stress level was satisfactorily reduced.
Seriously? Yes, I am single, yes, I have dated a good number of women over the last three decades, to the point that my friends (well, mostly their wives) ask, "who are you escorting around this time?" I am not, however, actually a gigolo, and in fact I try never to prostitute myself in any sense of the term. I am happily involved in a monogamous relationship.
On the other hand, if the economy gets much worse, I suppose I'll have to use whatever skill sets I possess to pay the bills.

Lovely island, Nevis, rented a house there for a couple of weeks a few years ago. Friendly and warm people whom went out of their way to entertain my young son. I hope you had time to explore the island, not that there's an awful lot of room to roam. I hope to get back one day.

Thank you, I thought it was a reference to the vehicle you drove (kidding!)
