Thanks for your concern about the silence (and mild irritation, I discern). No reason to be!

So, we’re back – from Maine. Making new friends, as you can see. We left ten days ago on a leisurely jaunt there, stopping in Cleveland and Niagara Falls, and returned this afternoon on a not-so-leisurely return trip – we could have probably forged on and made it all in one day, yesterday,  but for horrible back ups on whatever interestate runs through the middle of PA.

And why don’t I announce it? Because it seems like announcing a departure for points across the country is akin to inviting trucks to pull up in our driveway, ready to load up the goods. You know?

So, more later….
