AWOL Redux

For anyone who is following this blog, it may appear that I have abandoned it. I have not. But I am learning there are some times when you can't blog.

I've returned to the U.S. for a while to be with my father, who is dying. It's too private to blog about, and too deep and essential to consider writing about anything else right now.

I enjoy writing this blog, and reading your responses. I will return to it (and to Amsterdam) soon.
