December 30 - To All of That


A quiet, leisurely day -- until it's not...


Up at a reasonable hour,


bidding farewell to Chris,


who's driving


back up


to Boston;


yet more arrangements re the flights (now relatively easy),


a first/last repast in the cafe,


and


off


to


the airport


(Is this Bolton?  No, it's Ipswich) --


away!  Second coldest, winteriest day back home, a partly-foggy 48 degrees, after December 27's 46, with George-and-Bette's-domain at a totally gloomy but slightly warmer 51...
