Number 4 cylinder on the USS Expedition has gone bad.  We were able to make it to the Space Station Wray Ford near the Shreveport system.  Engineer Reggie, who oddly looks like Mickey Roonie, reports that repairs will hopefully only take a few hours, and the schedule will only be effected for the day.

So I have given the crew shore leave, which has allowed everyone to electronically reconnect to the Earth.

I am starting on recover from my coughing caused by Regalian Cold.  A day at the Scarborough Faire actually seemed to help. While indulging in the likes of Meat on a Stick, gyros, candied nuts, and turkey legs, we enjoyed shows such as the Birds of Prey, Zilch,  the dyslexic comedian, Marquise and Ima Nut and their dog Blockhead.

Melissa was greatly embarassed by Rondini the escape artist, while helping him get strapped into his straitjacket.  I was selected to help chain him in, and he actually did get out in about 3.5 minutes.  Pictures are hopefully forthcoming.

Christopher checked out many of the sword snd armor shops, and Ginger picked up a nice glass creamer.
