Hey Deborah, the doggies are well, thanks for checking! It was rather hot all weekend, but cooled down a bit on monday. Looks like it is going to be hot for the rest of the week! Glad we figured out most of what was going on with the password leaks, but I imagine we still have plenty of other work to do to ensure everything is secure!

Had a somewhat busy day today, did not manage to get as much done as usual, but that is not too surprising since I am hosting a friend from out of town.

Pretty productive day today, cut up some rocks and checked out the Denver Museum of Science and Natural History.

Happy Sunday Marcus.  Sounds like a wonderful day.  I love museums. The Oriental Institute of Chicago, The Art Institute of Chicago, The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and The Maryhile Art Museum in Washington  State, on the Colombian River.

I have heard good things about a few of those museums but am always surprised at how many there are. I was surprised to learn that they have the worlds' largest crystal of rhodochrosite at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. Went up to mount Antero yesterday to try and find some gemstones but almost slid off the edge of the 4wd road, so we ended up heading back down, didn't want to do any claim-jumping. Ended up meeting a cool old dude called Craig Cardwell who I guess owns most of the claims in that place and is fairly well known though, so that's neat.

Hi Marcus,  that  museum sounds really awesome..  I'll bet driving to Mount Antero was beautiful.  Glad you are okay. (no  cliaim-jumping allowed!.That guy sounds cool. Could learn a lot  from him.  You do live in an amazing state.

Hola Marcus, ese museo suena realmente increíble... Apuesto a que conducir hasta el Monte Antero fue hermoso. Me alegro de que estés bien. (¡No se permiten saltos de demanda! Ese tipo suena genial. Podría aprender mucho de él. Vives en un estado increíble.

Oh you met Craig?  Hopefully you told him I said Howzit!  He would know what I mean...

Don't forget about the power hour promo video!  Even if its the tiniest of tiny clips, its at least an i+1 start!  Maybe if it was a weekly thing, heck even screen capturing interesting power hour times.  Yesterday, Melissa and Sylvia did one for themselves painting and one programming!

PS Where is Mount Antero?[/justify]

I will have to definitely get a clip made up. Just got back from checking out wigwam trail, got some minerals, but nothing too fancy. Mount Antero is located over near Buena Vista and has a surprising number of claims, but I guess there have been quite a few valuable gemstones located up there.

I may have missed most of the meeting, but I am glad I got to go to the extra power hour at least, hoping to get back into the swing of things with normal daily productivity again.
