Dear Hildie:

 

So much for the storm day. I held the crew in but they could have gotten the work done, I think, in the morning, because nothing was happening in Covington then. But they might have had a tornado cross the highway they were on if they’d stayed much later.

 

This morning I drove out to St. Francisville and got a tour by a fellow who wants to develop 130 acres. Poor guy was ready to go when he got a letter from the state saying: “Wait! You have to do archaeology!” He was beside himself. Actually, he was a really nice fellow—not a professional developer, just trying to make a few bucks off some pastureland he bought.

 

I may have to donate some bullets to the Republicans’ circular firing squad. Very amusing.

 

So much for now.

 

Take care.

Love,

M
