Ooh, CAPTAIN BLOOD. I had forgotten about Sabatini.

Thanks for bringing attention to the KELLEY COLLECTION. The librarians at SUNY at Buffalo have done a great job redesigning the collection web site.

I would love to see it someday. Maybe the next trip to the Shaw Festival.

The Shaw Festival in Niagara-on-the-Lake is about 20 minutes from my house (not counting the bridge/Customs) delays. We have some great restaurants here...

Niagara-on-the-Lake...beautiful place. How lucky you are to live so close and have the festival to enjoy each year. Of course, the tourists (me) do get underfoot...
