After several blustery days, today was unexpectantly mild - climbing up into the mid 60's.

I had to drive up to Portsmouth NH to get the rest of the chapter head drawings for the book, and that put me in Aaron Tester's (aka Atester) backyard. He ducked out of work so I could deliver his Mediocalcar decoratum...thank you, Lynda!...and I got to meet his lovely wife.

The frosting on the cake was when I was showing him some book stuff, and he helped me get the ancient Irish and Gaelic pronounciations correct for my appendix. Such a talented guy!

The drawings are amazing and the book should be complete to the publisher early next week! The mild day here was a boon!

Please stay warm, Gin and Lynda...and whomever else has gotten slammed before me.
