Briefly:
1. Everything for my Thanksgiving is still in flux. I mean, I am definitely going to Bob's funeral (and so I think I'll wait til after THAT to finish posting more about him); but between my Mom, my Aunt, my brother, his girlfriend, and flight schedules, I think there are about four different plans for what I'm doing on the Thursday that are all possibilities at this point.
But yeah. Funeral. Possibly ft. me singing Amazing Grace.*
2. Rang my first peal for the war dead on Sunday. My hands are still sore.
* Not a hymn a particularly like, but traditional at funerals in some quarters.
FWIW, guys: if you ever for some reason are involved in burying ME, sing something else. Possibly "No saint on earth": Song #1 is a good tune, and I like the theology, even if it's crappy verse.

I did not offer explicitly earlier because you indicated that Thanksgiving with friends, while better than nothing, was not as good as Thanksgiving with family, and I was still hoping you were going to get that.
