3 November: Jon Singer's visit was the excuse for a trip to exotic grocers and a dinner featuring the results of the search. Gordon Garb came over to help eat.
1 November: We went to the World Fantasy Convention in San Jose, but I didn't take many pictures. Here are one image of the dealer's room and five of the fantastic cake made for Poe's 200th birthday.
September 26: We had bees, and arranged with a beekeeper [Mark Small at smallbees.com] to move them to an apiary at his location. The pictures show bees living in an architectural decoration; dead bees which had found their way into the house through the walls; and the man in the bee suit removing the tiles and vacuuming the bees up. There's a closeup of the very large combs, and the confused bees shown huddling together when they can't find the queen. The bees haunted the front of the house for a day and a half, and have now mostly gone away. Click for larger.
