Eastern Sierra Fall Colors – Lundy Canyon
My last planned stop was at Lundy Lake/Canyon. My plan was to stay here for sunset. As I did at Conway Summit though, I made two trips; once at 1:30pm and again at 5pm. Didn’t get any colorful sunsets, but I’m happy with the fall colors at Lundy Canyon. I even found a few abstracts…

New Blog Framework
About a year ago I changed my blog framework form the default WordPress theme to one of Justin Tadlock’s parent themes called “Hybrid“. It allowed me to add more “SEO Stuff” then the original default theme….and it’s free. Since I know just enough HTML/CSS to be dangerous, I also downloaded Justin’s child theme “Leviathan” and…

Google Plus (Google+): Keeping Up With The Jones’
I guess I have too much time to “waste”! I accepted an invite to set up an account with Google +. What does that mean? Good question, honestly! Right now I’m just testing the waters, but at first glance it similar to Facebook….with more features. Hopefully this will help with my online presence. Unlike Facebook,…
