       Thanks for all your kind wishes -- other than having the flu
       while trying to recover, and then having my hot water heater
       burst while being unable to lift anything, I'm actually doing
       pretty well. They got my staples out yesterday. I'm still pretty
       swollen, but it's more discomfort now than pain, and I don't need
       any medication to do my daily business things.
        
       Speaking of business, then, what better way to return to our
       regular schedule than with a formal renga/renku with a very
       Japanese subject. The hokku (first stanza) even includes the
       standard haiku's kireji (cutting word), and a kigo season
       reference. More to the point, we have a very classic photograph,
       of one of the channels in the Asticou Azalea Garden on Mount
       Desert Island in Maine with its Japanese-inspired design. This
       photograph was from a 2006 trip and I'll probably dig up a few
       more in the future.
        
       I also note with satisfaction that more and more folks are adding
       the RSS feed to their feed readers, and the @HDNR Twitter page is
       also developing a loyal following. More than anything, I think
       that makes me heal a little bit quicker. Your loyal viewership
       means a lot. Thanks for reading.
