A slow meander on top of a late start. Just as well, it was raining until just before sunrise.
Talked about Factorio too much, the Cat too little, and Haylock Jobson in passing. Spend some minutes talking about living the dream.

You mentioned a writer’s retreat on a train as a risk you’re not willing to take with your health. Is this just a solo-thing you’re talking about, or is there some organized writer’s retreat on a train? I’m aware of organized writer’s/fan’s cruises, but I’ve never heard of one on a train.
I know Amtrak has something of a “Writer’s Residency” program, but that’s more like a scholarship/grant for a handful of writers. It almost sounds like you were talking about a writer’s workshop/conference that took place on a train route.
No, just a simple private thing. There’s a train that runs from Chicago to San Francisco. One of the stops is Denver. With a rail pass I could get on in Denver and get off at Denver. 🙂
