Cut! Print! That's a wrap.

My brain apparently spent all night playing survival horror video games (Black Court vampires, I think) and it would wake me up on occasion to ask what I thought it should do next. And then there was the incident at 0417 where I launched out of bed and grabbed the bokken next to the bed before I was actually conscious. For some reason, as I rolled to grab the sword I also noted the exact time.

So nine hours of perfectly restless sleep.

My Summer Vacation

After AmberCon Central, I convinced Amanda to make a stop at an old nineteenth century industrial town I'd found out about on the way to Minneapolis--Fayette--which is now owned by the state and being reconstructed as one of those living history things.

Here is a collection of shots from the part of the town I did manage to get to.

And here's a dozen shots from the cemetery near the town, overlooking the lake.

I want to get back to go over the rest of the site sometime, but I don't imagine it'll happen too soon.
