Finally removed the last remaining embed links to Flickr as I finally cancelled my Pro account. I’ve had it for 15 years or so, but honestly it was just a waste since I abandoned posting photos there once Instagram stopped posting automatically to the site. I have ported the photos…
February 3, 2021Added 10 photos from a tour of famous homes (and one fire station) in Southern California. Since there probably won’t be much traveling in 2020 due to the pandemic and travel restrictions, decided to have a fun day exploring some sights.
September 22, 2020Added a new trip diary for my short weekend trip in 2018 to Modoc County. Far North East California balances with the Far North California trip I posted in 2012. I took a longer break than I anticipated before I started updating again. I think I was a bit burned…
July 24, 2020Finally! After seven years, the design of the main site has been refreshed using the Sitka Theme. This coincides with the 25th anniversary on June 28. Still tweaking the graphics and some small things here and there, but for the most part it is done. I also slapped some paint…
June 28, 2020Personally, I can’t believe it myself, but the long-lost and forgotten Japan October 2004 Diary is finally up on the site with photos and everything. There is a week left to go before the 25th anniversary and I really need to focus which is not easy these days. I did…
June 22, 2020It took me two additional weeks, but all existing Trip Diaries from Europe 1996 to Caribbean Cruise 2017 have photos added. This completes the redesign of the section, now just need to focus on adding Japan October 2004, Salt to Sky 2019, and the misc side trips from 2015-2016.. Crazy…
June 15, 2020Purchased a new template on June 1 that will eventually roll out to the entire site. The template is called Sitka by Solo Pine and after an exhausted multi-year search, its the one I selected – primarily for the look of the travel example they had on the site. While…
June 1, 2020Fixed some lingering formatting issues with older trip diaries. I mostly want to fix the spacing of the entries to add readability. Also big news – Japan 2017 and Caribbean Cruise 2017 have been added – the first new Trip Diaries since early 2015! Hoping to have some more ready…
May 29, 2020Some long overdue housekeeping on the main site as I went through and did some link checks as well as reformatting the paragraph layouts of the entries. Some of the entries still have some of the errors from the first MT install and I can’t believe that some 20 year…
May 17, 2020Added 19 new Gorn photos from a Northern California trip last Christmas. Also updated Piwigo which is scary since I don’t manage that program very often I had to relearn how to re-activate my custom theme.
