Whoops, I forgot part of my speech:

And thank you very much also to all of you whose invitations I had to turn down for reasons of time or geography. I appreciate the offers as well as your patience with all my "Maybe - I'll have to see" messages. You should all come visit me when I settle down too.

I've had a quiet weekend at my Mom's, spending quality time with my good guitar and getting a fresh layer of cat hair on all my stuff. Tomorrow I start out for New Brunswick. I have another seven weeks or so of bus pass, good within Canada. I don't have my route all preplanned; the only definitely scheduled thing is passing through Toronto on June 5 for Rick's memorial. Basically, I intend to spend my time up till then on the east side of Yonge St., and the rest of June west of Yonge.

Take care eh, Marion
