Meeting Up with An old Friend



Stanley travelled back down to Denver and stayed with John & Peggy King. One great thing about the Oracle community is all the friends you make and Stanley was really pleased to find an old friend here. 'Miss Molly' attended Kaleidoscope last year in New Orleans and Stanley couldn't wait to say hallo

Stanley Says Goodbye to the Mountains



So after a fun filled weekend in the mountains Stanley had to say goodbye, however Stanley had been a bit naughty, jumping in the hot tub, staying out all night and so it was decided to teach Stanley a lesson.

Don't mess with the ACEs!

Stanley enjoys the snow



So Stanley had a dip in the hot tub courtesy of Mogens (don' ask about the pants), and then stayed out all night under the stars.




It was a clear night but rather a little cold and as hoped Stanley was a little 'stiff' the next day.

The intention was that Stanley would make a good sledge but unfortunately he did not slide too well but we had a good time trying.
Then we decided he made a better Frisbee than a sleigh!

Breckenridge Welcomes Stanley

So the Foak Table folks have rented a house in Breckenridge and it is the most beautiful House. At its peak last night there were 17 people here including Stanley.

Look at Stanley's holiday album .

Last night Stanley was in the hot tub and slept outside under the stars. Today he is going sledging, look out for his next blog

Stanley goes on Holiday

Even the most famous Oracle presenters need a break, so Stanley joined the 'Foak Table' for their annual holiday in the mountains of Colorado. There was no room in the car for Stanley once the beer had been loaded so Stanley travelled on the roof, no real hardship until the snow blizzard started.



It is a long trek up the mountain so we stopped in Idaho Springs for 'Mountain Pie' or 'Cheese and Honey Pizza'. It was a great place, you drank out of jam jars and they had a world map where you added a pin to show where you live, as Stanley has a label 'Made in Vietnam' we added a pin for him there. The Restaurant Beau Jos is based on the mining heritage of Colorado, hence the miner Stanley made friends with.

Presenting at RMOUG


Now that Stanley is a regular on the User Group scene he needs to be more of a contributor rather than a 'groupie', so at RMOUG, Stanley stood up with two ACE Directors, Dan Morgan and Mogens Norgaard in their joint presentation 'Ignorance != Bliss', but once Stanley had been introduced to stage he wanted more, so thanks to Dan Norris he was given the chance to have his own mini presentation 'Who is Stanley'
