Well, chalk me up as the latest HoP kid to do a Home of Poi tour. I just got back to New York and my mind is still aswirl with wonderful thoughts and beautiful smiles.

I of course owe tremendous thanks to everyone who came out to meet me and feed me and shelter me. I really was touched to be so welcomed into so many people's lives. Those that I really got to spend time with will always be in my heart and I'm sure they know it.

The reason why I'm posting this as a general thanks (rather than PMing just those whom I hugged) is that I realized somewhere on my plane ride home that it's really this website alone that has given me the gift of the most wonderful summer ever.

Even people that I didn't get to meet from countries that I didn't get to go to made this site special to me. Special enough to buy a ticket and meet just a few of you.

I know that others have done "HoP" tours as well and I know that they've been just as touched as I have by the hospitality and warmth shown by everyone here.

Thank you Malcolm, for creating one of the most beautiful and important things in my life. Thank you moderators for working to keep this the warm, fluffy place it really is. Thank you to everyone who's posted warmth and love at any time.

Of course, thanks to the wonderful UK HoP princesses and princes who's couches, floors, beds, and tents I slept in. And for all the hugs. (You all know who you are.)

I have met some of the sweetest and warmest women and honest and caring men over the past few weeks and I owe it all to this little grey website.

Thank You Home of Poi.

Well, shall we go?
Yes, let's go.

So ya mean, if I hitch a ride to the UK I can get free room, board, and hugs from all the people Ive been idolizing for the past few months?

Im so there.

...Well, maybe some day

Afterall, it might take a while for me to find someone driving across the Atlantic.

Let's turn those old bridges we crossed into ashes.
We'll blaze a new trail,
and torch the rough patches.

You both have very good taste

Only when the last tree has died
and the last river has been poisoned
and the last fish has been caught
will we realise that we
cannot eat money.
