I realize that it’s been more than a month since my last blog post. I’m not happy about that. And after getting an email message from a concerned reader today, I thought I’d take a moment to apologize.

Truth is, I’ve been very busy and, although I’ve got plenty to write about, I haven’t made time to write. Now I’m on vacation (leaving my home, chickens, and barn cats in the very capable hands of a house sitter who is probably eating eggs 3 times a day by now) and I purposely left my laptop behind. I can’t write long form on my iPad, so a real blog post will just have to wait a little longer.

In the meantime, I’ll try to use my new phone to share some vacation “postcards.” (I’ll set the publication date and time to approximate when I took the photos, so some posts might appear older than this one.)

Gotta run! Here’s my train!

This Silver Line Metro train will take me a good portion of the way to the Air & Space Museum in Chantilly, VA.
