A pause in Granite Geek while I go on vacation - to Pakistan

I'm going to be posting little or nothing in Granite Geek for the next two weeks because I'm going to Pakistan on vacation.

Don't be too impressed with my daring, however: I'm tagging along with the Milford Rotary Club, and the visit will include local Rotary Club meetings. I even had to pack a suit - I've never taken a suit on a vacation in my life! We'll visit hospitals and other local Rotary projects in the big cities of Lahore and Islamabad, and will try to establish some new ones, such as a children's library (I wrote about it in the Telegraph.)

Rotary International is big on its members visiting each other across the globe, to build trust and understanding. New Hampshire and northern Pakistan Rotoarians are developing a pretty good connection, surprisingly - there isn't exactly a huge Pakistani presence in the Granite State.

A colleague, Andrew Toland, will try to post here occasionally and may put up a few pieces from Earle Rich, if all goes well.
