Hello!

I've been a little scarce around here lately because I've been putting together a community blog for my hometown newspaper.

I'm trying to put a lot of local and regional hiking info. on the blog. So, you might be interested in checking it out.

Here it is...

Happy Hiking!

Hey, that's cool!

Our paper is looking at starting blogs for columnists -- which includes ME -- on its website. Any advice?

Lizs, I've only been blogging since early January. But last month, I got almost 3,000 hits.

I am trying to post every day. I think that is the big key. People won't click unless there is something new.

I'm also trying to provide information that isn't anywhere else on the web. My home county isn't what you'd call a hiking mecca, but nobody has set up a hiking guide yet. So, I'm going to do it.

And I am having lots of fun!

Oddly enough, we have 3 Monroe expatriates into hiking around Harrisburg, PA, I'll see if I can send them your way.

Sorry, Pink! I haven't been a regular reader on this board lately.

Anyway, things are good. My blog got 20,000 hits last month. Pretty cool.

And I just keep hiking away. The school year is great.

I miss the Michigan Mountaineers, btw. Tara, Smiley, Joy, Birch, Buddah Bear, laqtis, le subtil. Does anyone know how he is?

That was a really great time in my life. And this one is pretty darn good, too.

Lesubtil is doing well RL. Email him, I'm sure he'd be glad to hear from you!
Good to see you, hope you and K are well.
