627.0. "Goodbye" by SSDEVO::BOURBEAU () Wed Mar 28 1990 11:07

	Well, it's time to say farewell. I'm taking the DEC seperation
package on Friday, so tommorrow will be the last day I can check in on notes.
I'll miss the people I've gotten to know through this note, although I
haven't had the pleasure of meeting most of you. I have also learned a lot
here.

	I will be trying to start a business of my own. Under the name of
Shinin' Times Trading, I'll be going to Black Powder Rendezvous and trying
to sell goods made locally, including some made be my wife and me. I'll also
probably have some commercially available goods. I hope to have a good time,
and maybe make some money at it.

	Best of luck to you all,
			George

627.5Shinin' Times TradingSSDEVO::BOURBEAUWed Mar 28 1990 17:1121
    By popular demand (Jeff) the following is a commercial message.
    
    	Shinin' Times Trading
    	Jones Rd. Rt2
    	Calhan, Co. 80808
    
    	(719) 683-3420
    
    		Will attend Black Powder rendezvous, initially in
    Colorado, and one in Raton New Mexico. It will inhabit a primitive
    wall tent, and deal in clothing, leather goods, beadwork, iron and
    steel implements, wooden items, and some black powder accessories
    of the pre- 1840 period. Most of the sale items will be made by
    local crafts persons, and will be mostly functional as opposed to
    decorative. With time, and a modicum of success, I hope to expand
    into fancier, more decorative items, and black powder firearms.
    
    	If you're ever at rendezvous, look for Shinin' Times, and drop
    in an' jaw awhile.

627.6Who's not going to hunt??SSDEVO::BOURBEAUWed Mar 28 1990 17:1611
    re. .4 I'm getting my plane tickets for my Vermont hunt next week,
    and the tents that I'm getting for the business will be suitable
    for a hunting camp including facilities for a wood stove.
    	Does this seem like I'm willing to forget about hunting??
    
    	In fact, most rendezvous take place in prime hunting country,
    so I can scout the area after business hours.
    
    	Seems like the best of all worlds to me.  :^)

627.7GoodbyWFOV12::DRUMMThu Mar 29 1990 09:217
    	Goodby and good luck in the business world. It's been fun to
    note with you, Maybe some day we can hunt a high ridge together.
             
    	Did you send a picture for the book? We will always have you
    around that way.

627.8Going to CADECWET::HELSELLegitimate sporting purposeMon Jul 06 1992 13:1412
    
    
    As of Wednesday, I'm out of here.  I've decided to head down to Palo
    Alto.  I guess I won't be doing a lot of huniting for a while.  Or at
    least not locally.
    
    If anyone from the bay area is a big hunter and willing to show an out
    of towner around......
    
    I wonder if trap shooting is big in the bay area.

627.9good luck brettSALEM::MACGREGORMon Jul 06 1992 14:155
    /brett,
        Good luck and I'm sure the extra t won't hold you back. Are you
    still going to be working for DEC? Keep practicing with that Weatherby
    of yours on those rolling tires downhill.

627.10Well, are you going to stay with DEC?DECALP::HOHWYJust another ProgrammerTue Jul 07 1992 02:4413

	I'll second that "good luck" Brett! Times of change, eh?
	Hope it will work out for you. I know that CA may seem
	a bit uninteresting (on the face of it) when compared to
	Washington... But, there are a few attractions: some of
	the best blacktail hunting in the country in the north
	part of the state (Yolla-Bolla, Trinity Alps spring to mind),
	I also hear that bear hunting is pretty good? 

	Hope you stay with us!

    Well, this is my last hunting note.  It's been great talking with all
    of you folks.  Have fun in the woods always and be safe.
    
    I've decided to join a very small company.  I am leaving DEC.  It's a
    risk but I've got to try it.
    
    Thanks for all the good times.  Speaking of which, wasn't it roy fulton
    that shoots at the rolling tires?  ;-)
