We're Moving!

No, we're not moving houses. We had a family meeting and reviewed our site statistics. Despite the fact that we have very low commenters on this blog (three), we have quite a large readership. We don't mind that you all don't comment. We have an understanding - we provide material, you read. Our relationship to each other is understood. However, we did feel the need to move to a site that we control and we own, so, web developer husband bought us our own domain name for Christmas. You'll now be able to find us at www.fromnorthofhere.com A lot like our current address, just without blogger.

The new site has some new features: a calendar (so you can see how often we post, or you can figure out what today is...), a photo album (so we can put baby photos up), a search feature, a catagories section, and - my own favorite - the posts have the title and then a small description. This way you'll see something like "Not Exactly a Transportation Strike" and the description "We do a 30 minute mile". If that looks like a post you want to read, you click the "more" button. If you think "I really don't care if they are the slowest people in the world" then you don't have to read it.

Some of you may not like the change. Change is good. You will get used to the change. We've moved all posts over and will soon be bringing up the photo album. We hope you will come visit us at our new home and we hope you will invite your friends and family members. Remember to reset your bookmarks to www.fromnorthofhere.com If the blog doesn't work out for us, we can always sell northern-themed knick knacks off the site. We can do what we want, it's a room of our own.

Hope to see you all soon.

Chris, Jolene, Wilson, Reagan & animals.

You've CHANGED. (Said accusingly.) I'll check it out.

Change can be good - we hope. :) Chris wanted to contribute more to the blog, so he's set up the tech-y side and that makes him feel good. I will tell you I hated learning the new software. Hopefully the new site will make you happy Gin. Let us know.
