This is my first blog post. Been a long time coming.

I have been thinking about doing this for at least a year, but kept putting it off, in search of the perfect title, a catchy gimmick, a world-changing theme–something to justify putting my words out into the atmosphere.

Well, no real solid plan, no earth-shaking wisdom to impart, but I’ve started. It’s just about us living here, seeing life from a different vantage point. I have wanted to share it somehow–even if only to remember myself the many things I have come to love about this place and the people here and the issues–both good and bad–that have become important to me since coming here.

Steve, you asked for a URL by the end of the week.  Here it is!
