This is Lee Elbinger [[formally Lewis, but still Lee to the FOGs) checking in from Istanbul, Turkey. I retired from my job in October 2011 and spent 11/11/11 in Maui, Hawaii, with my daughter Spirit and friends. We visited the Haleakala Crater [[10,023 feet) at sunrise on that day and had a shaman fire circle that night. Spent December and most of January in Pleasant Ridge, Michigan, at the family house with Spirit and then took off for Israel. After two weeks of couch surfing with friends and relatives, I came to Istanbul where I have a huge community of artist and shaman friends. Plan to be here till end of this month and then it is either Dubai or India. I will return to the USA on July 4 and take it from there. I am on Facebook now [[Lewis Elbinger) for anyone who wants to follow my postings there. Regards to the Gar Wood Mansion crowd, Lee
