Studying and Planning

I've pretty much not gone out since the last blog entry, spending the days studying, training Tai Chi, and planning the trip for when Janine and Jordan arrive. We have had two big wins with the trip. First is that Qantas announced a special that allows children to fly free on selected flights - including the one we want. So that saved around $1000. The second big one came today when the Motorhome hire company I was planning to use announced a 50% discount for the duration trip we are doing. That saves another $1200. Praise the power of deliberate living with postive intentions!! Of course some people would just say we are lucky, however that means we are constantly lucky as this stuff happens often these days...

I've changed the trip itinerary a little to allow for fewer stops and a few long days travel so as to consolidate the 'looking' and 'driving' aspects of the trip. So now the map looks like this.



Basically I've cut out the incursion into Canada, and added a trip through Death Valley, Grand Teton National Park, and Mt. Rushmore National Park. We also travel more through the (hopefully beautiful) areas around the Rockies. We also head North via Chicago into Toronto, instead of South, and that saves travelling the same roads twice.

Study is going well, I have knocked up a database to allow for far more powerful analysis of signal correlations. I believe it is starting to pay dividends, if for no other reason than it forces me to examine each potential trade closely in order to determine it's various qualities for entry into the computer.

I'll finish up this entry with a photo I snapped a few days back, showing how the local Police always have people's welfare foremost in their minds, because they care...



Bye for now!
