Back from much needed vacation

It has been over six months since my little family (a wife and a 21 month-old son) were last outside of the limits of NYC on an overnight trip. We just returned from a week in Maine, which proved to be just what we needed. For me, the highlight of the trip were all the lobster rolls I ate, especially the one at Cook's Lobster House on Bailey Island, which was just across the water from where we were staying (Harpswell). The next time I go to Maine, I intend to get lobster rolls at each of these places rated as the "10 Best Lobster Shacks in Maine."

While I was away, the chat service I am the administrator for was somewhat quiet, except for a few pesky high school students who logged in to chat while in a library classroom during a workshop. The chats weren't as obnoxious as the ones I described in an earlier post, just bored kids goofing off.
