There were horses.
There were guns.
And a visit from my brother and his family from Wales. They were hoping to ride but I didn't think that'd be too safe, so the kids got to give JB treats and attention. That horse has come a long way -- I would have felt very uneasy having children around her a year ago.
But that's not all. Finally managed to read the excellent House of Cards, which is all about the gruesome Bear Stearns blow-up.
And lo and behold, it's happening all over again! But worse! Merkel tells us that we won't have another Lehman Brothers. Well you never know, maybe that magical German alchemy will transmute the radioactive lead on the euro zone balance sheets into fine gold.
Smart people are learning to ride, shoot and grow their own food.
