Look, Ma � NO SNOW!

With yesterday morning�s guild presentation given and packed up � we boxed up what remained of my measly merchandise and book signing table (half a box worth!) and headed out in Stacey�s big ole� dodge truck to roam the Nebraska countryside.

I got to see HER stomping grounds! A 7 acre hobby farm complete with 100 year old farm house.

COUNTRY LIFE! And I was feeling the need for it.

Only problem was � ONE out of the 8 cases arrived, and following tracking numbers showed that the other 7 got waylaid along their route somehow, and did not arrive yesterday.
