Folks —

I'm taking off on a short holiday to see my folks who winter in Arizona (hi Mom & Dad!). The only internet access I'll have will be via AOL on a Win98 laptop with dialup — which means I probably won't be posting.

But I will be reading. I'm bringing two books with me (apart from the Loeb Apostolic Fathers, which always comes in handy when writing):

• The Reformation: A History by Diarmaid MacCulloch. I'm about 2/3 of the way through it, hope to finish it or at least get close.
• And finally: History of New Testament Lexicography by John Lee. I've been champing at the bit to get into this book, but I've held off. This is going to be my primary reading.

Between these books, hanging out with my folks, playing some golf and working on my Pastorals stuff, it should be a good time away.
