I thought everyone had been awfully quiet. I'd only seen 2 of 3 messages this month, and they didn't make a lot of sense. I finally checked the Orkneyjar website, and found I'd missed out on quite a bit. What I had read makes much better reading in context of the rest of the discussion, and a lively one it's been. Can't wait to get there and see the exciting archeologists. Anyone who gets this message and doesn't remember there being much discussion this month, might want to check. I too cannot wait to get back to Orkney. I'm working on plans to go back to the St. Magnus Festival next June, I hated missing this year's. Anyone else going around then? But for right now, I'm trying to get ready to go to Germany where I will pick up a copy of Wolfgang's Orkney book from my friend in Heidelberg where I had it shipped as they wanted the price of a plane ticket to mail it here! She will also have to tell me what it says, as my attempts to learn Deutsch in the past year have been pretty futile---I got hung up on too many ways to say "the," and trying to determine which river was what gender. I think I'll go see what I missed out on in July. Karen still in Memphis and almost as young as Wolfgang & Stephen

Soooo.... What is Wolfgang's book all about? On Tuesday, August 10, 2004, at 02:05 PM, KJEMEM@aol.com wrote: > I thought everyone had been awfully quiet.
