The road beckons
There comes a time when you just say "enough," and that time is now. A reality break is in order after a four-year hiatus from anything remotely resembling a vacation.
For the past few years, stress-related fatigue and a dearth of disposable income were the chief focus due to an untimely celestial alignment of long-term illness, loss of employment, and a personal finance snafu.

And for-real dairy bars. And dark, starry nights. And a loon's call echoing across the lake. And cider mills. And 'maters. And the smell of cedar woods. And sweet corn. And . . .
