Hello everyone! Just a brief note from work to thank you all for your messages of encourgement and inquiry. The Grand Duchess and I are settling into the new and improved Stollen Central very well. . . with one notable exception.
What should have been as simple as the telephone company throwing a switch to transfer our exisiting phone and interenet connection has turned into an ongoing pain in the you-know-what.
After two days of calling (from the grand Duchess' office no less)and speaking with several different branches of Verizon, I was finally told that the earliest a service man could visit was next Wednesday April 16 -- ARGH!!! So, I've busied myself with unpacking, practicing my guitar, and setting up the painting desk in Der Stollenkeller. More on all of this, along with a few pictures, as soon as we are up and running. Stay tuned.

It is good to hear that you and the charming Grand Duchess are getting settled.
As I recall, getting phone service in the house we first rented up here was a nightmare. We got here during a phone strike and it took almost a month to get service.
Hang in there . . . and think of the positive side of things . . . no telemarketers are able to reach you right now.
Lani and I send our best wishes to you.
