To all my Techrider Pal's
I am finally back on line after a 5 day sabbatical of sorts.
That “funny felling” I had last week as posted on our other site sure did manifest this week-yowee! (Good thing we been makin powder lately huh Blue!)
Before my quick report I would like to acknowledge the following person's:
KLP, thanks for the welcome to Seattle. It was drizzly and cool that first couple of days but the sun came out the hour of the wedding. How long have you been there?
Sarkie, I send my blessings to you & yours for the upcoming challenges you face in the weeks ahead.
Joana, I hope some healing comes to your family that you are helping with. (ps-, I used to be able to Limbo under a 17 inch bar)
Peach, has Blue given you my E-mail address for the Rocket Ride?
Hansi, you found our little family, welcome. Also I wanted to let you know that I have a piece of one of those “earth-bashing rocks”, a small chunk that my Grandfather gave me many years ago. It is a special stone for me; it looks like hard black tar with large pieces of pyrite imbedded in it, pretty cool space item.
Joe, nice hair, and if you want to hang on to it don't margin on your favorite stocks just yet.
Carolyn, your report is contained in the following:

Well we got my brother married off (again), and all went smooth.
It was a garden wedding with 50 or 60 attending witnesses.
For my part I was patio stares builder, Best-Man sorta guy, ring bearer and Official Toaster to the new bride & groom.
For those wedding fashion followers, I wore my Dad's dark blue blazer and light blue dress pants, my brother's white shirt and a $2 yellow garage sale tie AND my bright new blue & white Converse All Star's tennis shoes. I was told I “now looked handsome”, then what was looking like before I wondered?
My only advice to the new bride during my Toaster's speech was that I was the first one to share a bedroom with Roger, from age 0 to 5, and the one lesson I learned was to never play with his toys, don't even move them or you will get in big trouble and he will move out of your bedroom after a few dozen such offenses.

On the return trip to Victoria we went over to the Olympic Peninsula and drove up onto Hurricane Ridge. Still lot's of snow and an awesome view. There are Blacktailed deer grazing on the grass along the snowmelt that are totally relaxed to visitors. My toes were frozen from walking around on the snow fields wearing my Hawaiian ‘flip-flop s'.

I will be off-line a lot in the coming weeks but I will check in on the Ride when possible.
You be careful on your trades cause these are strange days with new Market factors sneakin around…

Ride on Techer's, Ride on,

Puna

PS-a Raven flew toward me this afternoon and I gave her a Raven-call I know and she flew down close to me, cocked her head, looked me in the eye and let out a wonderfully deep guttural croak!
The winged ones are great messengers, it was a personal message I think. so won't call it a Market Omen just yet, but you can.
