Notice the new header? How about the spots for your comments under every post? I wanted to add that so we could have a little more of a conversation. I’m  thinking I’m getting tired of  doing all the talking.

Good? Bad? Here’s your chance to pass on a little input.

This site is designed and maintained by a very talented gentleman by the name of Jason Vanstone (you guessed it, he’s our son). He’s in Toronto, I’m in Mazatlan but thanks to the magic of the internet we can work together on this. With you help of course.

You like? You don’t like? Roll down to Comments and let me know what you think.

Some time a little later this week there will be a number 8,000 on the bottom of this blog. Scroll down if you want, have a look right now.  As I write this the number is 7933. I started this thing in December, 2007 when my son Jason put it together for me for a Christmas present, I added the Site Meter and it started counting in February of the following year.

So what that means is that someone has clicked on this blog about 8,000 times in the last year and a half or so. Is that a big number you ask? No, it’s not. Yahoo probably has that many visits in a milli-second.

I’m honored though, I really appreciate  all my regular readers and my once in a life time visitors. I enjoy telling and re-reading my stories, your comments and emails.

So as the week wears on and the numbers continue to, ever so slowly, climb, once again let me say:

Thanks for the read.

Who ever thought that a blog could be a gift that just keeps on giving!
