Sorry for the silence

Sorry, folks. I know I've gone quiet on you for the last few weeks. I haven't been struck down by terminal shyness or rendered catatonic by writers' block. I just needed a little time to gather my thoughts, fight a few demons and plan a couple of projects that I'll be telling you all about before too long. A fuller blog and some new pictures will be out in the ether this week. I'll make up for not paying you enough attention. I promise.
