Hi, guys!
The Internet has found Highlands, NC! I can access DSL at my brother's rental, and the local ice cream parlor has WiFi. If I have to eat homemade ice cream with mix-ins on a waffle cone in order to get my Laramie fix, well, so be it. I suffer for my art. Today's flavor: chocolate with cashews. Mmmmm.
Family's a little miffed that I can't get away from "work" while on vacation. But I assure them it's just fine. No trouble at all. Keep posting those updates, Louise!
