I'm sorry to abandon you for the last two months. What happened was school and six-day work weeks and several 10 day plus work marathons. Then I needed to spend quality time with R and Bobo, eat, do laundry, rehearse, etc.
What has happened since August 10th? Sister KB and I did a triathlon!

Hugs and warm coats,
Wendell!
