Remember Kiddies: Always Knock On Wood

Looks like I spoke to soon, and my pilgrimage to the home of the Kroegers and the second best small-town Italian restaurant will have to wait until the morrow (hopefully no longer). Ahh, the perils of the 'patch. The work is lucrative, but subject to various whims and tidal shifts. At least I'm all packed now, but this is putting a damper on my iBook plans. Of course, i won't *need* an iBook if I'm not on the road. Damn it!!
