We'll be on a business trip for several days, so will be checking in from other machines than our own. That means you can't email me (after 9 am Wednesday) and get any response, but you CAN private message me. Same for Paul.

So everybody be good ... and maybe we'll bring back presents if everybody is really really really good ...

I know! If you're all really good, we'll persuade Miss Hoppy to pose for some new pictures when we return. (There just hasn't been a good sunny day when she's felt like it - it IS shedding season, and all the baby birds in the nieghborhood are gonna have soft nests for sure, because I bring her outside for some petting every day and watch the fur drift on the breeze ...)

We'll be watching when we can, and checking in frequently!
