Ehlana and Ethan:
We’ve had a fun play day; and we’ll be
camping again tonight after we go to the evening church service. This update is early because we’re going to
be computer-free tonight; and we’re taking a break before dinner to get cleaned
up after all of the biking, canoeing, and swimming. There also isn’t really much news to write
about anyway; so we can keep this short; and get back to our weekend wrap-up
entertainment.
Before we do that, we should mention that
we have already passed ten-million coronavirus cases; and there have now been
more than a half-million deaths worldwide.
Those numbers should quiet the pandemic naysayers, but likely won’t do
that; and we have no idea how big the numbers will need to be before that
happens. We can do the basic math,
though, and know that ten million is still a small fraction of the seven-and-a-half
billion people in the world; so we really are still just getting started on
this crisis.
Finally, Cassie starts her mid-term exams
tomorrow, and while we miss her; she’s enjoying the break from being stuck at
home for months – even though the work level is likely higher as she helps more
friends in-person. They’ll be home late
on Friday for the holiday weekend, but we’ll have more on that next weekend;
and don’t need to drag this report out with details we don’t really have yet
anyway.
We are looking forward to the holiday –
even though it won’t be as exciting as usual, but the everyday fun with family
and friends is awesome too; so we’re still having a pretty good summer-so-far
even if it isn’t non-stop excitement and adventure.
Mom and Dad are actually very happy about
that – and would likely tell us not to mess that up by wishing for more
excitement; since Gwyneth Hathorne would be happy to help us out with that in a
not-fun sort of way!
No, we don’t foresee any imminent danger;
so she’s likely just busy with other plots to take over the world and whatever
else junior Dark Magi Masters do for fun.
On that note, we’re out of here. Stay tuned for more as we head into the
holiday weekend and the next blast of hometown holiday and stay-cation
adventures!
This is Ehlana and Ethan Proctor; live from
the hidden home of the Magi of the Light – and May the Magi Force be with you!
