Last night I contributed a few bucks toward Lucas McNelly's new project Up Country, which is being funded via Kickstarter. If he didn't reach the goal of $4,000 by midnight on June 16th, his project would not get funding, and at $500 to go, it looked like it might not happen, but in the last few hours the money came in. With this good news, and the new redesign, I think I've gotten some more enthusiasm toward getting this blog off the ground. I'll be keeping an eye on Up Country's progress, at any rate.
