Welcome to the New Look

Down at the Big Sioux river with the relatives.

Same site, but I’ll be using WordPress to create it.  As time permits I’ll be moving pages from the old site into the new layout.

What is WordPress?

  • WordPress is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) based on PHP and MySQL. Features include a plugin architecture and a template system. WordPress was used by more than 23.3% of the top 10 million websites as of January 2015. WordPress is the most popular blogging system in use on the Web, at more than 60 million websites.   Wikipedia WordPress Article
  • Why am I doing this?

I created the old site with iWeb, which hasn’t been supported by Apple in 8 years. It shows. Using WordPress should allow the site to be of much greater use on mobile devices. I’m also able to add two things that have been requested the most; a search feature and the ability to make comments.

Let me know if there are any issues and /or features you’d like to see added.
