Home from home

Well, I went to visit my parents for a few days last week. Both my sons came with me, and we had a great time. Still, I was happy when I was home again. My dad wants me to move up north, but I'm not prepared to do so. I hope he won't insist.

About a year ago, we published the last Stretcher pieces in the Post. I would love to have another Stretcher competition, I thought the one we had was great. However, I couldn't be involved other than as Post Editor. I still hope we'll find volunteers.

To remind you of it, we have a few pieces today which were written by non-competitors, but inspired by the Stretcher. In addition, we have lots of fantastic articles, as always. Please enjoy our third Summer Special 2010.
