As you’ll see in Friday’s column (read it here), I returned Wednesday after almost two weeks of vacation in London and Paris. (Oooh la la!) The column is a recap of some of the bigger local news that occurred while I was away.

As for this blog, I used up my store of prepared material while I was gone to keep the posts coming for your reading pleasure. I’m out of time for a Restaurant of the Week, but I’ll try to be back on schedule with that next week, when I’ll also present my monthly Reading Log and a few photos from my trip that may be of interest.

Oh, and if you’re not following me on Twitter, you can do so here. I tweeted photos and commentary from London and Paris. And there will be more: I have photos from Paris I haven’t tweeted yet.
