From a innocent phone call over 8 years ago, several of  us "computer friendlies" met in a chat room to discuss  ideas and dreams we had, things we wanted to see happen in this life time..... far fetched ideas, we thought.  We traveled many roads in our conversation;  from spiritual, emotional,  and intriguing to complex, brain-teasing,  and constructive debating.  Although our topics revolved around our dreams, we felt our dreams were so far "out there" that in no way would they come true.  

Singularly, we five friendlies had each already contemplated designing web sites but felt that we truly could never compete with the market... so many companies were attempting to develop their name in  web site creation.  Singularly, we each felt maybe a bit intimidated and uncertain if the knowledge needed to spin an excellent web site were in our realm.

Finally, someone brought the subject up (I believe it was Newhi), about the thought of  building web pages........ the flood gates were open.  The chat room, which was already very busy with keystrokes, had now become a flurry of speed typed responses.  Together we knew we could do web pages, alone we dared not try............the dream realized. 

Beginning that night nhi associates, an association of forward-thinking people geared towards computer-related income, was formed.  Planted that night as well were the seeds which grew to become Penny's From Heaven, Inc  and newhi.com
