Totally understandable.<br /><br />On the other hand, perhaps it's just that I'm blessed to live near an active representative of ISOGG, and have several opportunities to learn about this field at different events within reasonable drive time from home. Perhaps when the learning comes incrementally, it seems easier.Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-68474060097246078912016-01-05T21:46:00.443-08:002016-01-05T21:46:00.443-08:00Tolkienization?

I keep delaying that for "another day." There's only so much time and although I want to understand it all, it's hard for me to sacrifice research time for it.....but maybe tomorrow.....
