Most of you reading this already know that Tara and I parted at the beginning of the year. We did however co-train several 2005 seminars together and appeared jointly at festivals and expos.

“Sedona Soul Agreements Seminar,” outside the meeting hall. On my right: Helen Fredricks helped on the support team. She used to be the Sutphen Seminars co-ordinater. On my left is Connie Chudomelka. I recently trained her and she has launched a hypnosis practice faster than anyone I’ve ever taught. Beside Connie is psychic Patrick Smith.

My daughter Jessi and her husband Fletch at the Indian cave high in a canyon wall in Boynton Canyon.

Jessi coming through the “eye of the needle” in Boynton Canyon. It is difficult and a little dangerous to climb through this slot from one canyon into another. From here you can climb to the top of the rock formation, far above.

Marc, David, Martha and Connie at the top of the mountain.

Carol Morgan, Ph.D. in her office at Wright State University in Dayton, OH. We worked on the book we are writing together for a couple days before the Universal Light Expo in Columbus, OH.

Tara and Carol in the Valley of the Sun booth at the Universal Light Expo. I introduced Carol prior to her expo lecture. I was just starting to tell the packed room about her, when she said, “Oh, Richard, you’re not going to tell them that story are you?” And we went into our standard bantering. I don’t know why this happens but it has become part of our co-training style. Tara and I conducted separate workshops and co-trained a two-hour event.

Bliss Wood and I on Lake Cassadaga in Lily Dale, NY – “the town where everyone talks to the dead.” In 2006 Bliss and I will work together at several seminars and expos, plus we will do joint book-signing sessions and share a booth at the International New Age Trade Show in Denver in June.

Bliss in Lily Dale in the grove where mediums come to do mini readings for those gathered in hopes of hearing from dead friends and relatives. In the old days, the mediums would stand upon “the stump” (in the foreground) to deliver their messages from spirits.

The entrance to the Lily Dale community. The sign says, “WORLDS LARGEST CENTER FOR THE RELIGION OF SPIRITUALISM.”
