Congratulations, LorII...
from one infant boy with the traditions of this site. It is the path I choose, however, to grow up here following some of the traditions that you have set forth so wisely. Without you I think this might well be just another stormy sanctuary, but you've always provided inspiration's canvas for us to write upon. Indeed every month provides the traditions of a thanksgiving feast, and we do not have to await seasonal holiday potpourri to taste a variety of wares; even in the dead of winter we can experience the resurrection of Easter in the Common Square. It is the spirit's walk to be following you, and I'm pleased to be a part of the home team here. Thank you for captaining by example.
deLighting in the journey, Daniel
