It is, and has been, a really busy spring and summer for us. We JUST got back from flying to and back from Newark for a great-niece's extravaganza wedding, and now in 4 days we fly back to Newark to board a Princess cruise ship in Brooklyn, NY, the following day for an almost three week cruise to the Canadian maritime provinces and then Greenland.
I will see y'all in August, or maybe earlier if I need to retreat here for some relaxation. I will have theoretical access to internet on the cruise, depending on signal strength.
