Remember Me?

So it's been about 2 weeks, but I have a very good excuse. I was on vacation. In Canada. At Mom and Dad's 50th anniversary celebration. I had all kinds of good plans -- I was going to take a photo tour of Mom's garden and post it here -- I was going to take family pictures and post them here -- I was going to write a blog or two at midnight when the sun was still shining in the very far north. Funny how none of that happened.

More later,
