Back from the south

No, not *that* south. We took a 9-day trip to southern California. Just got back. Lots of stuff to write--we have sentences for sure now!--but no time to do so, nor to comment, though I do hope to go back and read everyone. So for those of you who had tragedies, achievements, and other things I would normally comment on, I'm right there with you, or will be shortly, but won't be commenting until your next post. :-)
