20180819 Weekly Update

The August days are winding down and the heat is slowly making its way below the triple digit threat.  I took part in a hike recently that ended at Vulcan Mountain.  No, I didn’t get to meet Spock or try a Vulcan mind probe.  However, those who took the five-mile trek got to enjoy some stargazing and those who had a telescope were kind enough to share.  I survived the hike and met some wonderful folks whom I never exchanged names with so I assume they were real and not figments of my heat-addled brain.

I’ve begun my posting into alternate sites.  Minds.com is a new one I have been enjoying and I was sad to let Google plus go.  No further posts will be left on that site as I never got more than a single view every few months.  I don’t post for views but when I’m trying to reach as many people as I can, the lack of return is just too prominent to ignore.  Sorry, Google Plus.

A new IGTV vid was posted at the end of the week and I am having fun.  I’ve no idea if it will eventually become a major platform or go the way of the google but I am enjoying the process.  I also get to think of my posts in visual terms which is fun in its own way.
