Why no blogging?

Although I'm pretty sure all of the chezlong readers know what is going on, I thought I'd let you know officially. My dad had a heart attack (or something like it) two weeks ago today. He has been in ICU every since first in a coma and then slowly getting better (moving toes, nodding head, talking, moving hands, etc).  He'll be moved out to a regular hospital room soon, but it will be a long recovery.  This happened the day we returned from Lassen which is why there have been almost no updates in a while. I'm heading back home in a couple days and will try to post the rest of the lassen trip as well as some stuff from LA.
