And so I am back, and will have much to report on a busy, fun weekend.  Suffice it to say that Allison McGeehon was a godsend, introducing me to the terrific independent booksellers, Maryann McFadden was my excellent companion to Fairhope, Alabama and Page and Palette bookstore, and Amy Dickenson was hilarious and great fun (and I scored a hat promoting Amy’s new book, to bring home to my wife — she wore it on our walk this morning).  More details to come, but right now I have to go try to get the old vanity out of the wall in the bathroom so I can put in the new one.  Back soon.
