Me too! I love the meeting up between these two and have read and reread Taking Chances many times because of it. As you re- read, you also pick up more about the evolution of the relationship. In the early days Ennis gave Ellery hell if he covered up his back pain and treated him pretty callously at times in my view. Later on when Ellery stuffs up his back he is much more philosophical and forgiving and just sets about giving him a back rub and extra TLC. It's the emotional equivalent of slowing consuming a bar of chocolate.

wow, the way you guys talk about the initial romantic relationship and how it got started, sets me all aglow, and believe me, it's a good thing!

Looking at my watch, I have barely an hour to go before I can go get my arthritis pills!

Here's a kick in the head for you all... I got contacted about a project starting right away in... Portland, Maine!  Right in Leslie's neighborhood!  Now imagine what six or seven weeks in Leslieland might do to me, inspiration wise?  Or to both of us?  When we were in London for that bare two days, both of us got a lot done on our respective series.  So the question is.... will the Dynamic Duo be closeted together over Christmas scheming over what is to come post-Saga?

If Louise were to end up here in Portland, I would remind everyone of Tom Lawrence's philosophy: There are no coincidences. Everything happens for a reason.

Another milestone:

After finding out that there were nearly 30 people just here on Bettermost reading and following the Saga, I put RiteCounter on my website back at the end of September.  And looking at it today:

99,972 hits by 14,827 hosts since 24 September.  The counter will roll over 100,000 hits in the next hour!  Can't beat that with a stick.  Once again, thank you all who are reading, for your wonderful comments and enjoyment of the Laramie Saga.

And yes... Ellery is going to remember to nag Ennis to go to the ear doctor.
