After resetting a long forgotten password I'm attempting to once again revive this blog. I enjoy the creativity of it and the ability to share/educate from what I've learned/experienced/seen, but honestly is blogging still a thing? I've fallen off from reading any blogs especially when my few favorites now fill my inbox with weekly updates and links. My doom scrolling is mostly Instagram, FB, and Threads - haven't looked at X in years much less posted anything.
A lot of life has happened in the last several years, and I am still figuring out what comes next.
Photogaphy, playing in musical groups, reading and writing are still my mainstay of hobbies. Making an effort to more or less post consistenly on Instagram & Threads, despite having little to no interaction with others from those platforms is still an accomplishment and a record to look back on for myself.
As of May 2025, birding has entered my list of hobbies. Not actively searching for that elusive rare bird, but mostly backyard birding. Living on the gulf coast, a wide variety of birds pass through during fall and spring migration, as well as over-winter here. It's been an interesting pasttime and I can combine my photography for (at times) decent photographs.
Now that the login stuff is sorted - let's hope for (and I have a plan for), bringing back this blog and hope its still a thing. And as they say on FB when joining a new group -- here's a picture to introduce myself (and the picture is never of the new member).
