SHRPG - Major update

I've just posted the biggest update on my SHRPG project over at the SHPRG Development Blog. It's some pretty exciting stuff, as it means the game will soon be in a privately testable state. Check out the post, if you're interested.

In other news, I just got back from a vacation with my family to Deep Creek in Maryland. It was a blast, but I'm glad to have internet again. It's not that I really missed it -- I was having a lot of fun hanging out with my parents and siblings and playing with the nieces and nephews -- but I'm still glad to be able to check my email and stuff again!

Probably the most memorable thing we did was a Kayak trip on (I think) the Savage River Reservoir. It was about four hours, with a break in the middle for a picnic lunch. I'm not usually a fan of picnics, because you have to be eating with the bugs -- and we were, let there be no doubt -- but I still managed to enjoy it, and the food was actually quite good. Right after lunch, before going back out on the water, the guide took out his spotting scope and showed us a bald eagle's nest. One of the eagles was waiting right there next to it -- how cool is that?

Anyway, that's about it. Maybe I'll post more about the trip later, but probably not. Oh well ;)
