	'''The DM:''' As you pull out of Treborg, the sky is clear, there is little wind at all and the temperature is cool. You travel along the familiar route again, past the forest and into the tundra, bouncing over rocks in lieu of a pathway. You won't reach your destination by the ship for the full day of the 5th. The weather is warm in the morning and cools a bit in the afternoon, but nothing uncomfortable. It is very plain that you're in summer now, as you haven't seen a cloud in two days.

	I suggest that someone should assume the responsibility of drawing up (or finding online) some floorplan for the house you're having built. I've worked out that the area of land the house occupies is one chain squared, or 66 x 66 ft. This is one tenth of an acre (there are 10 chains in a furlong, and an acre is described in agrarian history as an area one furlong by one chain). I suggest that plans could be made for what the players might want to someday build within that space. There is no road to your house, so where the house is placed inside that space would have been agreed upon between the party and the builder, so placing the house is a good idea. Identify the direction of the town with relation to the lot (the town is south by southwest, but the map need not specify the top as "north"). Anywhere from one third to none of the lot may be covered with forest (party's choice). These things have come up as I'm reworking my trade table at present.

	'''The DM:''' Excellent. I started working on a post an hour and a bit ago and completely forgot about the campaign. The next step will be to calculate the weather as we move towards noon (it is just after 9 a.m.), create a new post and determine if finding the axe brings on an adventure, a meeting with some other beast or a sight of Kullander ... all things that I'm sure are on the players' minds just now. I'm going to take the rest of the day, however, to address some matters that need managing. I'm going to finish this post and publish it. I'm going to head out to the store for groceries because that needs doing. And, with my apologies, I feel I should also explain that with Christmas coming up, and the concommitant stress involved with that, and particularly at this time, we should suspend play this friday, November 20th, until the first monday of January. That's '''January 4th.''' During that time, obviously, I will be here, at home, on my computer, because I cannot leave due to Covid. This means, if anyone wants to address some subject within the campaign, this is 100% doable.		'''The DM:''' Excellent.
