I thought some people might like to know that our own George Sandy Coghill, absent from this site for some time, is recovering nicely from a fall, hip surgery and a life-threatening staph infection that has kept him hospitalized in Olympia, Washington, since early March. After more rehab, he hopes to be back among us in a month or two, home again and able to sit at his computer. (I'm putting out the word now, because it might embarrass him to read this.) After meeting on this site last June 27, we hope to honeymoon in Orkney.. even if he's using double canes. Somehow we both managed to fall in love with Orkney in the '70s, without our paths crossing. Now we're wondering what the damp air will do to our joints (not counting mangled hip), but we're willing to chance it. Several people have said this recently, but if Scotland felt like "home" to me, Orkney was Absolute Home. There may be places more objectively beautiful, but no place that has ever felt so right.
