Business has been difficult but still enjoyable. Boston is not too busy and New York (market) is as usual, a ‘casino’. It looks like the trend is down. We enjoy sitting on the mountains when the action in the market does not fit our style. Seems like we are destined to spend much time outside ‘civilization’. We hope this is not an excuse to remain more focused on climbing than business. However, when we have to pay for accommodation each day, we remember about business. It is a good system; it keeps us focused…sort of.
We journeyed to Albe, Alba, Albuk aha!, Albuquerque today after a splendid four days in Santa Fe. We enjoyed three outstanding climbs. On the fourth day, we decided to visit the town square and observe the people. At the same time, we did a little business. We bought some Microsoft, Verizon and Australian dollars. Today, we notice we got one-out-of-three correct in the short term. For us that is not bad—we have done worse in the past.

We had an enjoyable time in the park. We fired up the laptop on a bench, opened a Coke and did more business. Lynn and Fred, an elderly couple from Maryland, joined us and we discussed various issues. In the meantime, three hobos began fighting in the next office—well a few feet away. It’s a wonder a person can do any business in a park. However, one must not complain because the rent was very low and the weather was good, especially with the breeze blowing gently on our faces. It took a young ‘girl hobo’ to bring order back to the office—‘it’s not cool behavior guys,’ she kept repeating.
