I’ll be back late tomorrow, so regular posting will resume on Tuesday…most likely, and assuming I get enough rest. It’s been…a trip with ups and downs, to say the least, and I think both Grace and I are going to be glad to get back.

One thing struck me as rather funny this morning, however: yesterday was apparently when Earth Hour was supposed to happen. Grace’s family, however, wasn’t taking part in the “lights out” campaign to fight…climate change or global warming or whatever (as though turning the lights out for a single hour, even in several major cities, would do anything to stop a process driven, primarily, by an even more powerful light source that won’t be extinguished for…what?…billions of years yet?

Instead, the lot of us were partying it up on a docked boat, using a diesel generator to power the lights (and sound system) while we grilled nine racks of pork ribs and two beef tenderloins (as in, the whole loin) on a propane barbeque.

This family knows how to party.

At any rate, I haven’t checked to see if Ed Darrell or anyone else has sent any Reader Mail my way since I left Edmonton, and I won’t be checking until I get back to Edmonton. So if I haven’t yet answered something you’ve sent my way, O Reader, rest assured that I’ll get to it…in April.

And I’ll have an announcement to make as well.

Update: Welcome, Steynians! I’m back now — slacking is at an end.
