Looks like home

Ah, we're back!

And boy, is the sun bright in my new eyes -- even with regular shades under those horrid wraparounds that are supposed to screen out everything but arc welders.

Even so, we're pruning some overgrowth, setting up the new computers on their wi-fi network, getting ready to have some friends over for drinks -- though you'll have to wait a while for pictures: I still haven't gotten the hang of farsighted photography.

What I have gotten the hang of is stars, really clear to me for the first time in a few decades. Orion was magnificent this morning, even with a three-quarters moon. How sweet to see it all again.
