Greetings All!
I'm back from a Typical American vacation (that's 1 week, 1 spouse, 2 kids and a dog, with at least 1500 miles round trip in a car).
I'll give you the high points.
Very relaxing, I basicaly did nothing but fish and sleep for a week. You can REALLY build power alone in the middle of virgin forest with no one around for miles (assuming you can handle mosquitos!).
Had a very interesting LD, in that I was assisting(or being assisted, hard to say) someone to get around after AP. What really startled me was the way everything worked, no hangups, not getting stuck or the usual problems, and when I decided to exit, it was Bam instantly awake and fully concious. The interesting aspect was it all occured about 10 minutes after I finally went to bed (power building the whole time, and I looked at the clock as I drowsed asleep), I was pretty much spent when I awoke.
Had a great Karmic moment. The day before we left the radio (with a built in clock) in our car stopped working. It had a strange funny bar across the display, and no sound. I smacked it and said "heck with it". The next morning while packing I checked it again, still not working. I stared at it for a mimute and thought to myself "This just doesn't happen to me". So I looked over our vehicle very closely. Sure enough the left rear tire was low. So I checked all the tires and refilled as needed. Guess what? Yeppers, the radio worked just fine 5 minutes later. Coincidence or Karmic Intervention?
