Ugh

Life has it’s ups and downs — I had a fantastic weekend visiting friends in Arlington and Charlottesville but returned to Dahlgren to find my external hard drive (containing 20 GB of music) not working. I was able to restore iTunes store-purchased music from my iPod, but years of stolen collected music have vanished into the ether.

While near DC I did visit the National Archives. We still have a Bill of Rights, though it is a bit faded.
