All righty, folks. Tomorrow morning — provided that the Puget Sound SNOWPOCALYPSE remains at bay* — I’ll be winging my way toward Florida for the holidays. I’m flying into Orlando and then riding out to my grandmother’s place in a part of the state that could best be described as the Geographic Center of Godforsaken, Nowhere; and my internet access will be spotty at best.
Let me put it this way: There’s a library a few miles away. If there’s free WIFI available any closer, you couldn’t prove it by me.
So yes, I’ll be dropping by the library from time to time, but I will be at the mercy of other people’s cars and I cannot promise any regular correspondence until after the holidays. Ergo, if you don’t get a response from me by bedtime tonight, then there’s no telling when I’ll be able to get back to you. If it’s super-duper important, the odds are good that you have my phone number and can simply call me, anyway.
Everyone, everywhere — I hope you have a marvelous holiday season peppered with most excellent gifts, really good food, and family gatherings that end without charges being pressed.
Have a good one.
Next time I post (Lord willing and the snow don’t stack), it’ll be from the Sunshine State.
* North and south of Seattle have been hit hard, but for about 20 miles around the city, all’s cold — but clear. For now. [:: crosses fingers ::]

What part of godforsaken Florida is she in? It sounds an awful lot like where my mom has settled…
