furlough!

Congratulations to Allen Gathman at Seven Score and Ten for over 1750 consecutive daily posts and for a very well-deserved vacation!

Thanks to his example and support I found a niche and got somewhat close to filling it – most weeks I managed to post six days. Six out of seven ain’t real bad, but it’s not Seven Score and Ten and most of the other “Daily News” sites over to the right.

Thank you, Allen. This Sesquicentennial has been a great experience.
