Introduction

Family, friends, strangers, Internet - welcome to my new home! Take a look around. This is the result of years of dreaming, exploring, planning, perhaps some spending, and turning these things into something tangible. I really am proud of it. No, I don't suppose it's horribly fancy, but I rather admire its simplicity. Oh, please do sit down. I'll get us some coffee. I don't think I have told you yet how thrilled I am by your choosing to visit me: I am humbled truly, that with all your busy schedules you remembered how dearly I appreciate your company, and determined to stop by. I thank you for this. I will be free on most days, actually, so please know that you are welcome to visit whenever you see fit. I anxiously await seeing what memories are made; what conversations are had between these walls. Ah yes, I should be off to make that coffee I promised us a moment ago. But please tell me, how have you been?
