I am about to take off for Vermont and two weeks of Gardening Leave, something I had never heard of until negotiating the start date of my new job. As usual, we can thank the British for this quaint phrase.
I will take the train to Bellows Falls and then proceed to Chester, home to family and assorted dogs. The most notable is my grandfather's Irish Setter, the latest in a long line of Irish Setters. She may be upstaged, however, by my aunt's brand-new English Springer Spaniel puppy, for whom we all received birth announcements.
Internet access is limited there.
