Trying to get back to this

Well, I've been rather busy the last few days and haven't had much of a chance to work on this blog. I did steal some time and look into ways to post. There are a number of options, none particularly attractive, at least to me. There must be a better way than the blogger online interface but I've yet to discover it. It's a bit frustrating as when I look at other blogs it seems clear that they are able to ship raw HTML in some fashion. But how, that's the question? I've spent some time looking into RVs. I've been following Kallene's blog for some time. They have both a power cat and an RV. In one of their entries they wrote about the relative cost. Said and done the RV looks MUCH cheaper than the boat. Much as I really like boating, cost is a factor. That and the real fact that much of what I'd like to see isn't accessible by water. Thus my interest in RVs. There are a ton of web sites about RVs and travel. I've started following a couple of blogs to get some sense of how people travel. I also found RV Trader. This seems to be a site where both individuals and RV dealers list RVs for sale. Prices are all over the place but there seem to be some reasonable RV's starting at around $20k and getting fairly nice around $80k. It's a thought. I've spoken with BB about this, but with all that is happening with the kids now is not a good time. Perhaps we'll try to rent one over the summer and take a small trip.

On posting to this blog

It turns out that it may be possible to use FrontPage with and tags to make entries in this blog. I'm still getting use to this and would prefer to have a bit more powerful environment in which to compose entries.

I also found a reference to Windows Live Writer (http://windowslivewriter.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!D85741BB5E0BE8AA!174.entry) that might make entry composition easier.
