Witches and Mundanes - A Virtual Village!

Merry meet!

Well, the great wheel of life and time will soon turn a cog to usher in another New Year on the Mundane calendar. The cold wind blows, yet the days are growing longer, and soon the Lord will be reborn with the promise of green grass, warm sun, fertile gardens and harvests to come!

You are our family, our wider circle. We are connected by friendship, love, respect, magick and common interest. We are a virtual village of folks, both Mundane and Magickal. Rowan and I often find ourselves wishing that we could be with one or the other of you, or are traveling to visit, yet we know that the probability of ever being with all of you at the same time is pretty low.

So, we have concluded that we need to, as my sweet daughter Heather says, do a better job of staying in touch with one another. To that end, I have offered up a website and hyerlinked blog so that we can all have letters, rants, news, or ideas posted. Meanwhile, Rowan has developed a site for photos and writtings which might be better served by being more or less permanately on display. Rowan's photo library is also hyperlinked to the website.

So, send us your writtings and digital photos and we will make sure that we get them posted.

Rowan's website www.clanstormdancer.com has been delayed as Rowan has developed her very own digital artwork and website layout. However, it is very close to completion - Blessed be!

I finally had the painfull screws removed from my left ankle. But there must be something in my karma that needs attention as within four months I slipped on the ice in our driveway and broke my right arm. I now have a titanium plate and a whole new group of screws to learn to live with!

We visited Colorado in November. The Mountains were awesome and the weather hauntingly asked me why I failed to bring my bike!

Please send Blessings and kind thoughts to Tom & Dina as Tom will soon depart for another tour in Iraq. William is a senior and is contemplating college and the life beyond!

John, Kim and the guys are all doing well. The sled dogs are as wonderfull as always!

Rowan and I are planning on retirement in Colorado and hope for a sort of co-op with those in the the area with similar interests. Rowan made four trips to Colorado in 2006 in support of her business and family. With the exception of her Kansas speeding ticket her travels have been very rewarding and she smiles and laughs more as a result.

Our relocation to Colorado, which will put us both closer to our children and grandchildren, will be postponed by a couple of years. A friend of mine, the Boeing IDS Supplier Quality Manager for the states of Colorado & Kansas, promises me first call for the next Colorado position but needs me as Supplier Quality Lead in Kansas until the position opens. I am also being considered for the position of Team Leader of the Boeing IDS Western Region Supplier Improvement Team. The current plan is to be onsite in Kansas starting in April or May 2007. One state closer to where we want to be!

Gizmo (Allayne) has finished up at St. Charles Community College and starts at Patricia Stevens College of St. Louis in January. Giz will study Interior Design. After graduation in 2008 Giz and her boyfriend Kurt will head for Colorado.

Bren has moved back to Texas where he can be closer to old friends and hopefully take advantage of college opportunities available for him there.

BJ is scheduled for a maddening spring schedule. He will be teaching hip-hop at Cal Poly Pomoma, Citrus College and Chaffey College. Meanwhile he is scheduling gigs dancing and choreographing in Los Angeles, Seattle, Tucson and who knows where!

I'll share news about my daughters, their families and others in California in the next post.

A note to those in Colorado. I too have 'seen' what happens to the mountain and it's not Pikes Peak! Email me for information.

Okay, so now you know what's up with this web site, so please email us your pictures and writtings and let's make this Virtual Village a reality! As soon as I receive your input I will get it posted.

Until next time,

Brightest Blessings,
Stormy )O(
