Sorry For the Delay

I know that I've probably pissed off most of you regulars out there, but I want you all to know that I'm still working on my cruise post.  I tried to cut it down to a reasonable length, which I can't seem to do, no matter how honorable my intentions, and also, I'm working fewer photos than I thought I'd have.  (Still, I've got over 200 to choose from, but that's not making it any easier).

Anyhow, I'm still pluggin' along, making progress, but the light at the end of the tunnel is still just a mere speck.  I worked on it for several hours yesterday, and have no plans at all today except to sit here at the keyboard and keep pounding away.  

In the meantime, do me a favor.  Click over to Eric's blog and cough up some couch change.  He's heading back to Haiti--again--in January on a self-funded medical mission and needs donations to help with supplies and medicine and such.  If you've paid any attention to the news, you'll know that it's a very good cause, and every little bit counts.  And unlike some of the bigger charities where so much money goes to overhead and salaries and such, all of these donations directly benefit the people in his care.  And I, even in the dire straights that I find myself these days, thought it important enough to put my money where my mouth is and found a little extra to send his way.  If you look hard enough maybe you can, too.  I'd appreciate it, Eric would appreciate it, and the kids in Haiti would definitely appreciate it.

Please help out if you can.  Thanks.

Anyhow, I'm going to get back to writing and sorting pictures, so y'all have a great Wednesday and check back soon.  I think I've got my second wind and I'm feeling very productive!

Mikey, thanks for the plug! I want to let any prospective donators know that all proceeds raised will go DIRECTLY TO THE PURCHASE OF MEDICATIONS AND SUPPLIES form the orphans. I will pay my own way, as will my crew. My blog at http://ericfromva.blogspot.com gives more details of what I did last year as well as a few pics. I hope to "blog on the fly" while I am down there. If there are any concerns or questions about me, ask Mikey. Thank you! :-D
