I had thought that I was getting on top of things over spring break. My folks came to visit us in the Illinois house, we refinished our kitchen floor and made umpteen home repairs, and drove back to W. Lafayette yesterday.

So sorry for the lack of posting, but it will persist for a couple more days at least, and my folks will be heading back this way on the weekend...
