a Solar ThanksGiving!

Post by Gary Palmer »

With ThanksGiving upon us I think of Professor Stephen Ramsden and all his passion and talent. Professor Stephen has re-defined and raised the bar of "Solar OutReach" to a level that is second to none! Professor Stephen shares the X-citement of our closest star like never before! I send a round of applause to him for all that he has accomplished and I look forward to all that is yet to come from Professor Stephen Ramsden. . . Solar Astronomer!

Thanks Natalie.

How can 4 Sun Nerds be trouble??? Well, one does like to crawl around underground. (Shaking with claustrophobia just thinking about it).

Thanks guys. Lets put our brains together and find a way to share all this stuff with others. Nothing brightens your perspective on things like realizing all the beauty of nature that surrounds us everyday…


The Sun does 99% of the work and lemme tell ya'….The Sun Never Quits spreading its beauty…..so I won't either.


and by the way, I just realized tonight that there are TWO GARY PALMERS on this forum. Ill have to tell you al the funny story concerning this one day when we meet in person… This one is going in the NEAF speech for 2012

I feel like a child in anticipation of Christmas while I am waiting for NEAF. Robin and I hope to meet all of you there. We are praying for more sun this year.

Is anyone in this forum speaking at NEAIC?

BTW....shame on me. The name Gary Palmer has two golf champs names in there that make me think of Gary Player....I am always expecting a golf joke coming forth. Forgive me...I am old and humor keeps me young. :))

Now I lay me down to sleep.....God Bless my wife, children, grandchildren....the Sun and the LACK of clouds at NEAF.

I believe the Bible says, "Ask and ye shall receive."
