Even though I set up this blog in February 2008, I have never actually posted anything to it. I hope to change that now.
Some changes in my life since February 2008: My Dad died (by far, the most important); our daughter got married to a great guy, and our son finished a PhD at Cornell and got a teaching job at Indiana University (tied for 2nd most important); I quit bowling (soon to change); I've gotten more into photography; I'm still a surprisingly novice birder (guess that's not a change); and have had gout several times. I was elated when Barack Obama got elected (still am), and have been dismayed, but not totally surprised, at the "rise" of the Tea Party. I have expanded my nonblog social networking presence (joining Facebook & Flickr), and I have probably gotten even more opinionated. I look to this blog partially to express these opinions, because I feel that is hard to do on Facebook & Flickr.
We went to France in July, our first non-USA trip in almost 15 years, and first European trip in more than 30 years. I hope to post reflections on that in the near future.
In the spirit of making "baby steps", I'm going to go ahead and post this!

I'm so happy that you are blogging. I've always wished that more people could hear your wisdom!
You have lots and lots to say! Put on your Floyd Turbo hat and let it loose!
I agree with Susan, it is time for others to know how much you know, how funny you can be, and what thoughts are simmering down, deep inside of you!
