My work time in the field became something of a disaster, with little we did working, forcing us to be out longer than anticipated, both per-day and overall. I got home and immediately came down with a no-doubt-deployment-related bad cold that made my brain too fuzzy to write. I'm finally coming out of that and hope to get back to the writing I had intended to get done in the evenings when in the field. Look for new chapters to _Las Amadas and The Team_, _A New Tree_, and _Sandy II_ next week.
