The Return of the Auld Enemy


Yes it's harvest time so this week at the market I got another killer cabbage for cabbage rolls.  Wish me luck as I prepare for the upcoming knife fight with the beast.

OMG An Actual Miniatures Game!


After what seems like an eon, I finally played a mini game this week.  Pics and story over at Curt's featuring his lovely SCW figs.

We took  my daughter off to Halifax to install her in residence on the Labour Day weekend.  It was a hectic week since we picked Katie up from work at 4:30 Wednesday and caught the overnight flight at 7!  We spent the week buying stuff for residence and trying to navigate narrow Halifax streets in our rent-a-mammoth SUV.  We flew out the next Wednesday so that I could stagger into class on Thursday am.

Donald Featherstone RIP


I've noted a number of blog postings this morning about the passing of Donald Featherstone at 95.  Like many others, my introduction to wargaming came from Don's books which appeared on my library records many times during my teenaged years.


On other fronts it's been a busy few weeks with family stuff, but things should return to something close to "Normal" now that the Fall semester is starting.  I played one game in the last 6 weeks, but hope to have more to blog on shortly.
