Just a quick update
to say I’m still alive (don’t worry Mum, it was just a cold, I wasn’t actually dying of pneumonia :-)), I’m in Maryland at Buffra’s parents’ place, and we’re about to hit the road on our American Road Trip. Brad Pitt here we come! 😉
Chicago was great, Ottawa was great, and the bits of Ohio, West Virginia and Pennsylvania I saw last night as we drove through were really pretty. I’ve smelt a skunk (from a distance), and seen cardinals and oriels, and eaten all sorts of weird and wonderful things.
More later.
