Blog Redesign…. kinda….

I don't recall how long I've been using my previous blog design but I think it was at least 5 or more years since I put up that design when I moved from Blogger to WordPress.   I recently went through the themes that were available on WordPress.com and decided to refresh the design a …

Wow 10 Years of Blogging

I just realized that I have been keeping this blog active for the last 10 years.   I'm pretty sure I don't have a lot of readers because I don't really blog about anything substational except my travels, games, and technology but I think its significant that I've kept it up this long.  I've definitely …

Blogging milestone: Over 800 Posts!

Playing catch up

I haven't been able to blog much this month due to my being so damn busy at work lately. I know I'm way behind on posts but hopefully I can catch up a litle bit. My schedule so far is pretty set for at least the next two months which consists of flying to Minneapolis …
