Still Alive!!!

I'm in Salem!!  It feels like it's been a loooong time since I've posted, so there will be several short posts in a row.  For now, I'm enjoying my first peaceful moment in my new city in the much-recommended Gulu-Gulu Cafe on Essex Street, listening to 3 friends argue over the proper use vs. Bostonian use of the letter "R".  I'm almost home baby.  This could be a fun summer.
