I’ve been offline for about a month due to a change of location.  After 15 years among the calming redwoods of Santa Cruz, I’ve pulled up stakes and moved home and office to the devil’s own playground of Southern California.  I used to be able to hear the whir of the hummingbirds.  Now it’s the roar of the traffic and the incessant mowing and blowing, which appears to be a 24×7 activity down here.  The good part is proximity to grandkids, which in the end is what it’s all about.  My new address is 1216 New York Drive, Altadena CA 91001.  Anyway, I’m back online.
