Back in town

Been back from my vacation for more than a week now. I've spent time reading and thinking but have not settled down to write yet. The thoughts are percolating and I expect to have them posted by this weekend ... IF I don't encounter problems getting my new DSL service operational. "Three easy steps!" Yeah. Right. We'll see.

Anyway, chimps were all great. Can't wait to visit them when they get to their new home in Florida, where they'll get to run around on grass and dirt for the first time in their lives.
