Good Evening,
    Today was a wonderful sunny day.  It felt very warm with a temperature  
of 62 degrees.  I went for a hike around the property and found my first  
trillium blooming in a protected spot.  About that time I heard a sound  
off to my left and saw three deer trying to sneak away from me.  I had  
interrupted their afternoon snooze.  So I hiked in further to see if I  
could hear anything else.  As I passed under the canopy of the forest I  
saw some large moving shadows.  Looking up I saw two turkey vultures  
trying to figure out what I was.  It was so still I could hear the wind  
 from their flight passing through their feathers.

    I have no idea how propagation has been this week.  I have not been on  
the air since last Sunday.  I have spent a lot of time at the bench and on  
my computer writing code.  Just taking some time to write some more 3D  
graphics routines for some scientific modeling applications I am fiddling  
with.  The math is fun and it makes me happy.  Pretty moving colors :)   
However, these actually mean something once you get past how they look!

    If anyone is interested in acting as a relay station on either net  
please email me.  I will turn the net over to you for a few minutes so you  
can call areas in my skip zone.  It sure would prove helpful to those I  
cannot reach directly.

Please join us tomorrow afternoon and evening.

1) Hail signs  (first letter or two of the suffix of your call)
2) NCS help  (as well as QSP/QNP <relay> help)

Sunday 2200z (Sunday 3 PM PDT) 14050 kHz
Monday 0000z (Sunday 5 PM PDT)  7045 kHz

    Stay well,
       Kevin.  KD5ONS
