I'm in the Great Smoky Mountains of Tenneesee, with a family of bears for company. (See below, or above, I'm not sure where this photo will post.) Until just moments ago we did not have an internet connection at our lodging, hence the lack of blog posts. But now I am connected again and have no excuse! Except that I am at a retreat dedicated to writing. I will do my best to post something tomorrow.

Thanks, Roy, it was great seeing you, too! The mountains are spectacular, just got back from a hike to Laurel Falls.
