Eli would have been 11 years old today. 

I had a lot of pithy things in my head to say here, but they seem to fail right now.

The pic at the top is of Eli getting some Pirate stuff from my wife and I at Xmas. I think this was in the same year Eli drew most of the drawings that have become the basis for Stamp of Adventure. 

The bottom is his headstone. If you look under his picture on the headstone there are some squiggly lines. That’s Eli’s name in Tengwar (Elvish via Tolkien). 

That’s all I’ve got. (Not really, but anything else is going to degenerate into a bunch of nonsense and I’ll end up crying on a keyboard, so I think it’s best just to stop there.)

Next time, more comics.
