It was a mid-January night in Michigan. The wind was howling outside shaking the house and whistling through a few gaps in window moldings; it wasn't snowing but very easily could.
It was a beautiful summer day and my youngest son had been hours out by the swamp near our house building a fort with a friend. I sat at my computer in the living room responding to emails and doing a little work on the web site.
