Hi, folks, I'm more or less back in this country (except for the part of me that's on Italian time for waking and sleeping). Great trip, and pictures and post will come, but maybe not until I'm off dial-up and back to a reasonable connection at home.

Meanwhile, briefly, we saw Beowulf and Grendel yesterday and liked it very much, including the ways it was and was not faithful to the original. Good writing, good choices. And incredible scenery. More on this later, as well.

Hope all are well! Missed you.
