some things have been going on, well behind the scenes here. One by-product of that has been the virtual hiatus on this site for the last year and long delays before that.
I am hoping -- not swearing to but hoping --to get things back on a more even keel in the near future.
There is some change going on in the world, the terms "re-shoring" and "in-shoring" are now, occasionally being heard, something I would not have predicted back when I was trying to get this whole thing going. So there is some change, positive change. And some change that is less so.
Be back soon, I hope.

A Brief Note -- Sunday, September 29th, 2013
Sorry that things have been so disarrayed recently. Hopefully, that
will be changing soon. It is Sunday evening. Lord willing, this is our
last night in Lower Alabama. Again, Lord willing, this time tomorrow
we will be on the highway progressing towards the Greater Cleveland
area. This has been a very very rough month or two, as we make some
substantial changes in our lives. Having been away from virtually our
entire extended family for more than 20 years, it's like Going Home.
Sort of. Not sure my real Home is on this earth anyway, but will be
nice to see family again.
So come back soon, we hope to have things more in order as possible.

another one gone
Most people know the name Briggs & Stratton. Among other things, they make small-horsepower gasoline engines for lawn mowers, portable generators, and such. Good name, good brand, good reputation.
And pulling the rug out like so many others.
It was announced yesterday that they are reducing their involvement in the operation in Auburn, Alabama to the tune of some 250 jobs.
And moving the work to China.
Some may regard this as progress. I am not one of them. Nor, I suspect, would be those directly affected, or their neighbors, families, and others.

Brief Word
this blog has been in an unplanned hiatus for too long. I will be changing that in the near future, Lord willing, as some aspects of our life even out. Stay tuned, there is much to see on this matter.
