That darned leak
Last night we had a downpour again and the leak under the desk I thought I had found and sealed leaked big time again. I won't bore you here with the details - you can read all about this latest adventure at A Tale of Two Leaks.

Playing and Learning and Loving
..There is a Byzantium, but not the one Yeats writes about. There is another country the aging occupy and which we share with children. Its borders are formed by the animal that arises in puberty and subsides with the onset of wisdom. It is a land where seven and seventy are kin. Where there are no concerns other than playing and learning and loving. The inhabitants of this land are in no hurry. Our days are dense with experiences. We have, as the Spanish say, more time than life.
