Ok, you can't rightly call it "leave", as it's work travel.

I've tried to tell my opponents as I've gotten the last round of turns out, but in any case, I'll be out of town most of the rest of the month. Frankly, the stress and combat that I face is such that even the most fearsome advance of the Old Guard pales in comparison.

First off, I travel off to the wilds of sultry Houston for a fun filled exercise in Church Politics. Though, there are times I will wish I could turn out the Grenadiers I expect.

Then, I'll be back for three hectic days of trying to get the work of two weeks in, but the following Monday, I'll depart for five days at Church Camp.

Indeed, Wagram is starting to look downright relaxing!

Good luck,
I know all too well how fierce those Lutherans can be when they get their tempers up! I was married in the Lutheran Church.

We Knox's have our own Church and based on hot scottish tempers I am sure it is similar [:D]

Gary,

Follow Napoleon's example, and you'll get through this month.

Have the guard turn out the council, and give the kids a whiff of grape. Problems solved. [:D]

I'm back, though due to a few things going on here, it'll take me a few days to fully get back in the saddle again.
