As Close as I can come to a Thought for Today

In other words, it turns out I have more old pain to deal with than I ever suspected. My apologies to those who’ve been following the story of Gwendolyn L. Brody‘s and my Ozarks education, adventures, and misadventures. I do believe that I can safely tell you that as soon as I know I’m ready to continue the project, so will you all.
