I haven't totally given up on it, but for now I'm traveling again, most recently to Madagascar, and now on a several-month trip back to eastern Canada.

So I'm back to writing about the travels - hopefully with more enthusiasm than I showed for writing about life in one place. After all, what is there to say about life in one place? "Yes, still in Arlington, Virginia. Yup, some more of Arlington, Virginia. And yet again the same things happening
in Arlington, Virginia."

Hopefully this will be more interesting - for me, certainly, and perhaps
for you as well.
