I never thought it would be such a stretch of time since the last post. Since late September there has been a whirlwind of activity on many fronts.
There was the Apple Cider Century the last week of September, which is a wonderful bike tour through southwest Michigan's Harbor Country and nearby wine country. The National Park Service hosted its annual Century of Progress House Tour in Beverly Shores, Indiana, which was an open house for five houses that were barged across Lake Michigan from the World's Fair in the 1930's by a developer who wanted to promote the area. They are tax-payer owned and those who have signed thirty-year leases use their own funds to historically-correct restore them and eventually live in them, but do not own or pay rent.
I also had the opportunity to be a guest at an event held at the new-ish Modern Wing of the Art Institute of Chicago, fun to see at night as glass is the primary building material of the structure. Throw in a staging project and launching a micro-product line within a very condensed schedule and I hope I'm vindicating the absence from continuity, if only to myself.
While preparing the new product is going relatively smoothly, there are a myriad of details to work through, so it's been non-stop lately peppered with dreaded computer glitch 'work arounds'. Aah, and so it goes. Lack of sleep aside, mostly fun nonetheless.
