Many fun summers at the Purple Sage. I remember Jim Overy and I golfing with our Grandmas, Hilva Horne and Jo Elmer on Saturdays. ur grandmas were friends like Jim and I. Jim also worked the course with me, which was summer time employment from 7th grade through my freshman year at the University of Wyoming.

I took this shot while waiting to interview Scott Ehlers. Our editor at the Herald blended it with a Bear River whitewater shot for the cover of one of our Progress -Outlook editions at the Uinta County Herald.

Really, I'm experimenting with the blog and the new features, so I can produce some screen capture videos to demonstrate to others, who have sites initially designed by , what is possible with the blog. My site is in need of a serious overall. I'll do a few updates, but the big changes will be delayed some.

Now to save and hit the Facebook share button to make sure all is working correctly.....

I have really slipped in updating my own site. I've kept pace with many I've designed for others in keeping content fresh and vibrant, and yet, my own suffers. 2012, time to change all that....

Taking a position as the sports editor for the Uinta County Herald in August of 2011 has played into my lack o' time as a full-time gig, but I really must get caught up with my own web presence, and those I have created for others; it's a matter of scheduling time each week to do so, and training others through narrated screen-capture videos to perform their own updates, when they'd like.

This week is almost shot, coming out of the season of yule and heading to Riverton for three days of radio sportscasting on Thursday, but shortly thereafter...

I think Peter Brady may have said it best with his "When it's time to change, you have to rearrange,' declaration all those years ago.

I know it's a long way off, through days and days of inviting warm summer days, but I can't help but be excited about Red Devil Football, whether I'm around to call the games this coming season or not -- once a Red Devil, always a Red Devil...

I like the layout of the old blog better, but have more flexibility with the new. Adding an image and sharing to Facebook is built in. But the blog body font needs to be adjustable. It'll soon have audio and video as add-ins, but I can drop those in anyway, next to a post, I believe, as I'll try here.

This had to be a record-setting attendance this year, wow! The Machine Shop is was jam-packed. Quality entertaiment, lots of bright colors, great Mexican food, cool vendors - no wonder everyone turns out! Lots of visitors to the Etown, too. Plus it was Derby Day. And proceeds from the Fiesta benefit graduating seniors with scholarships - top notch!
