Mrs. DestoFante and I enjoyed a delightful vacation in Mexico, and we have some picture to share!
Once back I had to deal with a busy week at work. If you are checking the economic and financial news tonight, you may realize that my next day or two might end up being absolutely hectic indeed. But for the time being, I ams till enjoying a rainy (very rainy, as Stokes reported early today) but restful weekend. And yes, some wargaming progress was finally taking place! I will soon provide a more detailed update, but here a quick overview:
A. I completed the basing of a good portion of my Hadendowa/Abyssinians;
B. I did a thorough headcount of what I will need to play most of the Italian-Abyssinian War scenarios in Mark Fastoso's booklet. And the good news is: I am almost perfectly on target! Have you ever heard of a "completed" wargaming project? This may well be it!
C. "Almost perfectly" in the above item - I prepared two small orders to file with Irregular and Essex for a few spare items I need: a couple of Maxim guns and a few irregular Eritrean to deploy as "bande" with my Italians;
D. also, I am working on a new order to Minifigs to beef up my Marlburian French - for my "Lace Wars" aficionados, I may be back soon on that project as well!
I also completed a couple of fascinating readings, which served as inspiration to explore some wargaming ideas. More to follow on this as well.
Back to work!

Whereabouts were you? My father and I used to go down to various fishing villages on the Baja Peninsula . . . but that was many years ago and none of them looked anything nearly as fancy as these photos.
I hope that you had a wonderful time.
