Hello everyone. I'm still alive. In the last two weeks I've been to Maryland, cross country to California, back to Florida, then home. In that time I've had the opportunity to see a large variety of different landforms, from Kansas' wheat fields (sans wheat - it is winter after all), to the Rockies, and numerous canyons and "young mountains," as opposed to the "old mountains" - the Allegheny and Appalachian mountains near my home.
I've frankly been blown away by the experience. It's one thing to read about such landforms then try to describe them to players - basically rehashing what you've read. It's another to have been there, however briefly, and seen it. The suddenness with which the Rockies loom up west of Denver CO is has to be seen to be appreciated - no photograph can do it justice.
Anyway, I do miss conversations here and miss getting to play D&D on any basis at all. I'm hoping to make Marcon in Columbus OH if possible. In the meanwhile I'll be zipping around the country in a truck, taking in the sights and working on my new setting. It's fun - I've never had so much inspiration to work with before.
Later all.
