So, a lot has changed recently, and a lot is likely to change in the time to come.

As some of you may know, I have to travel a fair deal in real life for work reasons. Long story short, I have begun my first of what will hopefully be a few shifts at my new position in Alaska. Got to say, this is a big step, and I am taking it with a good deal of both optimism and apprehension. On one hand it is an opportunity that people in my career and age range usually don't get. But then, it means I'll have to learn to live without a lot of conveniences I was accustomed to in the Lower 48, and alter a lot of my typical patterns of behavior. But all in all, despite my reservations, I am hopeful this will turn out for the best.

With that said, now that I am at my place of employment, there are a few things that may limit my online activity. The signal here can come and go, and the firewall is a bit random, blocking or allowing sites it only recently allowed or barred. So it might limit my activity on the net, though I certainly hope to stay in touch with all of you I have come to know, and to keep working on the  Feather6 project. So to that end, my friend Goldquiver has agreed to help out, helping to manage my DA account if I am unable to access the site. For my FA site, I may just leave it be since I receive very few messages here. But I am going to try to keep working both on this project and on new sketches, if only in a limited capacity.

So to all of you out there, I wish you the best for the winter, and I hope you do the same. Take care, everyone. ^v^
