Well, we survived the long drive back from the coast. It's our first lengthy trip with both kids and I was trying to manage them both while all three of us were in the back. It was quite exciting. We did have some really great times, most notibly when my son and I decided to build a sand fortress against the incoming tide. He was barking out orders and calling me "fellow sergeant". Sadly, the wall finally broke and the countless jellyfish invaded our keep.

As for NWN, I finished SoU, enjoying it a fair amount. There were some interesting puzzles and thought provoking moments. None too hard that I could figure my way through after a bit.

I did have a terrible time trying to uninstall SoU and install NWN up to the latest patch. I was without a net connection and had downloaded the 1.30 critical rebuild. Unfortunately, it didn't work as there were some .dll conflicts that made it unplayable.

So, I worked on tilesets, creating a hallway door for the "Haunted" set of tiles in the Interior tileset. I also started in on a set of cellar tiles, using the haunted tiles as a base. So far, so good. I also started getting some good ideas for the module. Lots of notes in the notebook as well as some opening dialog.
