or so it appears. Sean figured out what was wrong and fixed it, as he's generally able to do with most things :) We had some excitement yesterday and Sean took some great pics:
So, what's going on, you ask? Well, there was a brush fire not too far from us on Friday afternoon and the lake nearby was chosen as a source of water. The helicopter made 10 to 12 visits, scooping water up in its bucket. Pretty cool, huh? The fire was under control very quickly, no harm done.

OTOH, the deck looks great. When I have high speed access again, I'll try to post a pic of it.Back to my research - I'm discovering that a lot of the primary source material that I need for this story just isn't going to be available to me unless I visit England. Which isn't going to happen any time soon. For the historian in me, this is a big issue. I HATE relying on secondary sources. Still, I'll see what I can find out there in cyberspace. Any tips?Ok - time to clean litter boxes. Oh joy!TeresaCurrently Reading: The Jane Austen Book Club by Karen Joy FowlerLink of the Day: Blogging National
