T-minus 30

Standing by the trash can at a "Marina Bar" in LAX, charging my phone, looking very cool, waiting to start a very, very long flight.

My plan is to actually blog as I go, but I've also got some Moleskins and 20GB of compact flash cards, so my traditional trip logging may win out.  Especially if I don't improve at typing on this thing.

Loud Australian at the bar.  All the world's the same really.

A New Tool

I'm giving Blogaway a shot as a way to update from my Nexus One.  With luck this will really make going laptopless in Thailand painless.
Still, not seeing a way to add images or links...
Ah!  I get it - you use the menu button.

Chris and Steve: Couple plant trees for exercise, environment. Charlie Starbuck:

As a volunteer, Charlie Starbuck has helped to plant trees by the thousands on the streets of San Francisco, a city long on charm but short on leafy green trees.

One man's volunteer effort to plant trees in San Francisco

Been a long time.

What I've probably always needed, more than a blog, was a dirt simple way to generate sites. My father's site (The Robber Flies of Crowley's Ridge) is complex enough in its requirements that I'm happy to custom code for it, but something like my abortive travelogues or the new San Francisco Shorin Ryu Shorinkan site (my karate dojo) really need something else, and while Google Pages was too simple, Google Sites fits the bill just about right. Now I'm unhappy with the limitations of Blogger!
