The concept of blogging:
Blogging isn’t a totally new concept for me. Before blogging became a “thing” I would write stories for my band newsletter which was the only way to let our fans know what was going on. That was a labor intensive endeavor. We would draft the newsletter on our computer and then have to print it. At first we used an at-home printer. Let me tell you, It takes a lot of paper and ink to print 500 newsletters. On top of that, we would print ‘to’ and ‘from’ labels to stick on the 500 envelopes we were stuffing with these newsletters. But I think you get the point. Communicating with the masses has definitely morphed over the years.
Why do it?
I’m lucky to have done a bit of traveling over the past 30 plus years. But I’ve never really had an outlet where I could share all my experiences. I have a ton of photos stuck in albums that are lurking in the dark realms of my office closet just waiting for someone to open them up and take a look. (I foresee a lot of scanning in my near future!) Given, many of them are family photos that I didn’t take personally. But they still tell a story just the same which brings me back to why I’m starting this blog. I want to share my viewpoint of the world with others. I want to help inspire you to get out there and conquer it for yourself and have fun along the way!
