1,000 & COUNTING

It was on March 23rd, 2009, that I created this blog, and posted for the very first time.  The original idea was to create an online travel journal, which would allow our family and close friends to keep track of where we are, and what we're doing.  That original intent is still relevant, particularly when we are in the motor home, traveling around the countryside.  This almost daily narrative of what's happening in our little world, has kind of taken on a life of its own.  With a daily audience of somewhere around 150, and almost 70,000 views since the beginning, those numbers would have been a little scary back in 2009. In today's world, with facebook & twitter blazing away , a blog, or personal website might already be outdated. 

I'm not sure how long I will continue to write about our almost daily activities, but I do know that I've created a window for our children to better understand what we've done, and how we lived part of our life.  With an annual conversion of the blog into a book for our kids, at least they have something that goes a little beyond the family picture album.  Today marks post number 1,000, and still counting.
