Hello from one at the North Carolina gov'ment histo presto office.
(North Carolina - Number 2 in the sales of manufactured housing.  Must
we really try harder?)  What a great  - albeit temporary - escape from
the bureaucracy, i.e. tax act applications, Section 106 reviews, and
mindless questions - "I just bought an old house, when are you going to
send me a check?."  As I see another spring spring forth and  I watch
the state abuse yet another historic house,  I hope the daily doses of
the B-P will prove to be a refreshing relief and respite from the
rehabilitation grind for this preservationeer.

Do I ask too much?.
