If you go to standeyo.com and then click on earth changes and for Feb5 you'll get into couple lovely reports about your snow over in the UK right now...nice picture presentation. So there was an baby born in the mess and the people helped get the car unstuck off and on for several miles so they could get to the hospital...good job Brits!...Mom and baby look just fine. I think it looks like time for an nice warm cozy fire... and some nice warm stew and biscuits myself. New England is supposed to get slapped with up to one to two feet of snow this weekend... here state side.  Kind of like what's been said over there...it's winter as yet.

Hi, James, richard... was having an problem sleeping last night. got back up and worked an bit more on this chapter...I'm headed into the home stretch on it in ways. I left it last night with 18 Templar Knight Gallion ships loaded with treasure... headed for Scotland...and the organiztion broken up and it's people killed, along with much the same thing with the "Beguine" women also and Marguarite Porete being burned at the stake...France is basically "broke" economically...and King Edward the III about get himself into the 100 years war....though this chapter is about "Gold" and all concerning more so... I am just about to jump over the pond as you people say in England...and tell how they emerge here...and how they get involved with the Gold of Mexico also as well as "Blick Gold"..or an few words about oil...and finding the Gold of California. Then I might wrap this up for this year....I'll end it with Alaska...and Russia and the country so called of "enlightment"...China. Next year's chapter might be taking the enlightment phase into religion and more achemy practices. I have an whole year to decide on that one with lots of other things that need done also, such as pictures inserted and other work in writing such an ordeal.

This week was an amazing one...since Feb. 1...Santa Cruz Island in the chain referred to as the Solomon Island's has had 12 earthquakes over 6 mag...with one 8 and couple in the 7 mg range.As one person said...sliding or rising over there? Space technology has found about 100 pyramids buried in the desert sand that were not known of prior...and King Richard III was released as having been definately discovered from his burial.

I hope to get into up dating the house an bit(painting) here after the writing session..and my kid's livingroom curtains need some work on them also... before I get into the painting phase...and my diet looked at for this year also.  Then comes Easter and the Garden....never stops does it. Also have those income taxes to prepare also, and not an dime saved if we owe any money for hubby's job. Suppsedly everthing it paying for itself on that one. They are gearing up back east for the heavy snowfall this weekend. People in the mid west said they'd love to have the moisture...as without it, they see bad crops for this year possibly. Can't be to wet, can't be to dry...maybe "normal" is the word. I go for now...have an good weekend everyone!.

Hi there Shirley, Richard, James and whoever else is hovering out there in the ether!

Hope you are having a great Friday and have a nice weekend planned.  Although the weather doesn't look too good in Uk or USA.

It's hot here! Although we have just finished with yet another thunder-storm.  I really don't remember so many of them or so regularly during the summers before!

Hi...decieded to take an break..getting an headache from all the research work on these English families for later on when they come over here...might just take an bit of an break. My latest is on the Moritmer family...in Wales.. but they tie into possibly Grand Master of the Templar Knights known as Jaques De Molay..burned at the stake. He's more closingly allied to Moray, Scotland.  But King Edward was in both places at times...of various kingships of that first name...and they have constant ties between them...the Earls of Kent also. Scotland became the last place where the Templars could go after De Molay's death in France...the only place Europe it had not been "outlawed" by the Catholic Church. Mostly I'm working with King Edward III. He was an son-in-law to France"s King PhillipIV who rounded up the Knights for the Church. The Church Inquisition of the day was against thier "cult of the head" as they called it..that they had idols (Mary, Jesus and John)...that could make them rich (alchemey..making Gold out of base metals)...and that they touched the heads of thier idols with small cords which they wore around thier necks (early rosary beads)...so it seemed an good time to kill them all..like the Cathars before them. De Molay sent off 18 Gallon ships loaded with Templar treasure before they caught up to him...bound for Scotland.  Look what the modern church believes in now...makes you want to laugh...or cry perhaps. I think perhaps "Moray" Scotland was kin to de Molay possibly...though the family went into the name of Murray. That concerns my family over here in an early time period. No, they weren't by that name, but they were with him when he was over here. I have an treasure hunt going with those ships...as Rossyln Chapter the last rite of the Templar knights I have as being built about 100 plus years later on. I have some pretty good ideas on it so far. Anyway, I better get back to this...as I have some TV shows late tonight I want to watch also. Do those storms bother you...like they do me in the summer time?...you be careful with them. I always seem to think of Gene Kelly "Dancin in the Rain" in the summer...smiles*

For give my spelling... I was looking at an new product they have out called "the dragon" where it types what you say...you don't have to think about anything in the way of spelling and maybe in the way of someone else messing up your posting?...that would be nice.
