Tour update: the hour-long interview yesterday on WXXI 1370 AM in Rochester, New York, was great, as always. The drive from Rochester to Albany, New York, was a bit hairy, with lots of snow, but we made it in plenty of time for my evening reading at Flights of Fantasy.

But we've got to drive through mountains (the Berkshires to get there, and the weather doesn't look great ...

Onward!
