I'm not done but making good progress. The last week has been weird and moving forward the next few weeks are likely to be weirder. Hopefully I will be able to chime in more tomorrow.
I have been amused and interested in some of the changes in the English language since this was written. I noticed a few words that have different meanings now than they used to. The one that really stands out to me is "sun burned". When I hear "sun burned" I think bright pink and maybe peeling skin. The way it is used, multiple times, is what we would generally refer to as a "suntan" or just "tanned". Quite different in my eyes. To me, this little change in the language really set off the setting and made me consciously realize this was about a different time and place.
