Fresh Start

Over the years I have posted lots of blogs. Generally I would start a blog when a small group was having trouble getting together. The intent was for the blog to create an avenue of communication. Sadly, that has never been the case. While the blog is a great way to communicate; it is not the most popular anymore with places like MySpace and Facebook taking over those honored positions. While I have used MySpace and Facebook, I have also been attacked through them with DOS attacks, and so stay away from them now for the most part.

A fresh start - another blog - another location. The family and I have moved to the great white north and are enjoying it immensely.

This is a good example of what happens when fog comes in and then freezes in low single digit temps. It is absolutely breath-taking when seen in person. Right now I am the only person in the family without a job, so it falls to me to run "Granddaddy Daycare" for Lydia Grace, my three-year-old granddaughter.

She is a handful for an old man like me, but I don't think I would trade a minute of it. I am back in school working on a Bachelors in Information Systems Security. Sounds impressive, but what I am really trying to do is fill in the gaps of my nearly 40 years working in IT. Unforturnately, I am finding lots of gaps that need feeling. Fortunately, I am not doing too bad - but it is only the first

semester :->

So sit back and relax; and I'll do my best to keep this posted and up to date!
