Hi Phil,

The underlined portion was read a bit differently should you wish to make a change:

@16:49 text is: "was a small mill, run by water, known as the Eagle Mills."

Nice catch! :clap:

Heckuva sentence that is. It would have been better had he broken it into several smaller sentences. I'll fix it.

This sentence definitely took a long winding road and I would have needed an oxygen mask to get to the end of it.

It's good to go. :)

Hahaha. Yeah. That sentence is 28 seconds long. It would be easier to understand (and easier to read), broken into six sentences. But hey, this author's writing is much cleaner overall than Mr. Dacus's impenetrable style so I'm not complaining.

Thanks!

All manner of stuff is still pulling on my time here so progress will remain slow for the moment. :evil:

Just letting you know that I'm still here.

July and August are normally very slow months for me but for some reason, for the first time in years, business has been heavy every day and I've had barely enough time to work and sleep. Four more days and I finally get some time off.

Good business pays the bills but sounds like you're overdue for some time off to balance things out. Let the countdown begin...

You bet I'm counting, but I found out today that I should have said five days and not four. One day won't make much difference.

Hello all. Sorry for the absence. :oops: Things have been crazy busy and still are but I'm going to muscle out the time to get this project moving again. Expect progress before the end of the weekend.

no, no, dont think i meant to prod you so much, we just havent heard from you (or, maybe you were in touch with laura), so i thought id drop a line.

it is no problem to step out for a couple of months, just keep us informed when you are too busy to record :)
