Another chapter begins

Or maybe it's a bunch of chapters. It should be. I hope it is.

A lot has happened since I started my vacation from blogging. Well, it was more like AWOL, but I'm back, inspired by hanging out in Denny's on Congress Street in Portland, 4AM, sitting in the back corner, my computer plugged into an extension cord that the manager kindly provided for me, loud music in the background and an Original Grand Slam (two eggs, two pancakes, two strips of bacon, two links of sausage) in front of me fueling this morning's episode.

Yes! A lot has happened. And I hope to get it all down, backdated to provide a sense of time and history as well as to deliver the facts.

My head is full of Moments. I captured a few, too damned few, on our  trip to Sienna for Daniel and Dana's wedding. But most of them are only in my head. They's in full color. Large as life, but I can't show them to anyone. And that's a pisser, I really want to share them. So in no special order here's a recitation of some of the things that I'd like to write about: (and when I do, I'll update this post with links). Here goes:
