We are back, finally more or less set up (in Sara's parents' house -- nothing like living with the in-laws).

We loaded our 15-foot truck and put our old wagon on a trailer and hit I-80, made it from SF to Minnesota in less than 32 hours. Red Bull and amphetamines. Still haven't been able to go to sleep...

It's been a real pleasure to check in with the blog this week and see Barry's posts -- we can't thank him enough for filling in.

We will definitely use guest bloggers again in the future, probably as early as next month when I start studying for the bar.

In fact, we've thought a little bit about converting this into a group blog (a la Volokh). The advantages would be more content and more diversity. The disadvantages would be less focus, a different news/opinion balance, and the possibility of morphing into a message board.

For now, we'll probably keep it as is, but fill in with guest bloggers from time to time. As always, we'd love your feedback on this or any other topics related to the blog.

And again, thanks to Barry for the work this last week. We hope he'll be willing to do it again.
