Hi everyone,
I promised to write several chapters during my 3-week vacation in April. Well, the first leg of my road trip was to visit my niece who attends Virginia Tech! The day I was leaving the area to head further south was the day of the shooting. I already had made reservations so I couldn't hang around. Luckily, she lives off-campus and didn't have classes that day. But, as those of us in United States know, the story of the shooting got more and more bizarre as the week progressed. I managed to re-route myself on my way home so I could stop and see my niece again before I went home. I took photos of the memorials of the 32 victims as well as where the shooting occured. Needless to say, I wasn't much in the mood to write after that and I'm just starting on Chapter 27 - tonite, actually. I really want to wrap it up before the end of June so I can send it to the archive. Hopefully the next post will be up before next weekend.
Thanks everyone - Chris
