We have moved, as of October 21, into our new old house in High Falls, in the Hudson Valley. We are told the kernel of the house was begun in 1803, and it passed through a period as the John Forbes Hotel. It’s a little beat up – heat not functioning on one side, multiple failing chimneys, water in the basement, rot in various places, electric wiring questionable, water quality poor (I could go on) – but an absolutely delightful place. And now we have three toddlers and an old house that needs everything and something seems wonderfully right about it all.

Congratulations on the new home. It looks beautiful! I’d love to live out in a more rural setting.
Anyway, I’ve just recently started reading your stuff and am really enjoying it. I think I found it on the FB latin language learning group. I study latin off and on.
