Loving the skiing here! Y’all should come. I promise to write more details soon…

Hello from Jackson Hole, WY! I got here on Wednesday evening after a long day of travel, and hit the slopes for the first time yesterday. The weather is nice — just below freezing, bright sunshine in the afternoon — and the snow conditions are very good, although there hasn’t been much fresh snow for […]

Wow, I haven’t updated this in a while! I forgot to write a quick review of Helen “Bridget Jones” Fielding’s first book, Cause Celeb, which is a weird but entertaining juxtaposition of the lives of celebrities in England and the lives of volunteers at aid camps in African starvation zones. A strange book, missing some […]

I’ve set up a new page for my Mediterranean trip… Come in and see the itinerary! Let me know if you want to join the discussion, or join me for some of the trip…

I’m back from England! As you can tell from the time of this post, I am going to be somewhat jetlagged for a couple of days. Had a great Christmas, with the annual itinerary now set, settled and comfortable. Spent the first few days with my family at my Grandmother’s in Cuckfield, and then drove […]

I spent the morning going around Paul and Kelly’s new house (!) in Toronto (!!!). For a limited time (it’s a BIG file) you can click here to download the (14.8MB) picture file.

Right. I doubt my posts are going to get much more frequent in the next little while as it’s that time of year again and I have lots to do. But I’ll try! Last week I painted the living room and put everything back where it was supposed to be. I’m pretty happy with the […]

Ok, the bad news — another two weeks between posts. I’m sorry!! I’ve been busy!! In fact, I’ve been painting! (That’s the good news!) The dining room looks great — a really nice shade of blue above the bookshelves on the south wall, and the hallway is really really yellow. I think that’s a good […]

Well, well, well. I’m baaack! Some of the things that happened over the last few weeks: – 3 Carmina Burana concerts (1 Exultate, then 2 Mendelssohn) – 1 Miraculous ‘how-the-hell-did-we-pull-THAT-off’ Ager concert (Calvin) – Civ 3 – Continued progress towards fitness – Lunch with Christine Griffith, who’s doing great and thinking of retiring back to […]
