Eight years Thursday

We'll be camping Thursday, my eighth blogiversary, so I'll just note it now. I suppose if this blog has a saintly patron it would be St Mary Magdalen, upon whose feast I began this blog in 2002. Obscure calendar note: her feastday has been celebrated on July 22 since antiquity, being one of the celebrations that survived the scheming wreckovators of the twentieth century.
