Well, I just hope that our young man has not had to endure too much in the way of hardship .. we all seem to draw sufficient measure of challenge to keep us on our toes and trying to do something, be it get the power back on or retreive a sunken treasure or just staying healthy or keeping a good dog about. Its clear and cool here tonight with a blue possum moon that one could darn near read by; some very light dusting of snow in the wee hours or the morn past, if you were up at that time and caught it before the dawn's first light .. weather that invites a fire in the hearth and a nip to take the bite off. Electricity is hardly requisite for either, but it is for Thorny to account for himself or recount afronts from shadows perceived in the woods and drifts .. and the owl in its silent flight said, "Who?"
