Hey, Maeve, thanks for updating folks! Yes, I did make it to Maine, though getting out of my street was a chancy business. Anyhow, I had a lovely time there (sans snow!), and it was great to see -- and hear! -- Maeve and many other good buddies. Dan and I both had a fine time, despite the long drive. The drive home always seems particularly tedious, but we made it to his house in PA last night about 10 pm, and I got home to Maryland about noon today. Getting into my driveway was challenging, but I made it! Still LOTS of snow around here! ...and more expected today and tonight, though not much, and mixed with rain. Ugh.
