I returned from Howard Days a few hours ago and have been playing catch up on email and other online things.  I stayed at my parents’ house in Breckenridge, like I usually do.  (Their internet connection was shot, hence the playing catch-up now, and the repairman didn’t show up when scheduled.)  It’s an hour’s drive away, but the rate I get on the room is good and I can make the trip into a family trip that I sneak off from to go to Cross Plains.  Unfortunately I tend to miss the late conversations at the Pavilion.  I’ve driven and slept at the same time before, and it’s not an experience I want to repeat.  I’ll be posting a report over the next couple of days.  I took plenty of pictures (until the battery on my camera died; it had gotten turned on without my realizing it).  Afterwards, I had to use the camera on my phone.  Those will be going up over the next few days.
