You asked for a more user-friendly blog and we’ve finally had the time, high speed internet and, more importantly, got around to reading all those pesky small print instructions on Blogger to figure out how to do it. I thought that I would do this in Denver during our 5 month hiatus, but I never got around to it, or learning French either. But today, with the wind and rain howling outside here at Spanish, it was a great yin-yang activity to do together. Many of you tech heads already know how to navigate these changes but for “my people”, I am adding the following:
Starting at the bottom of the blog page on www.babygrandadventure.blogspot.com , you will notice a more useful archive. My 260 entries since 9/08 have only been archived by weekly dates which is not very helpful and I can’t even find my own stuff—when were we in Marathon??? Now the weekly dates have the blog titles noted so you can find entries by title.
Want an even easier way to find an area, subject, name etc.-- use the Search This Blog section with a keyword. I had great fun with this and was amazed at all the pirate entries. You will find this new section in the second section from the top of the blog page.
Now for the absolutely most amazing added section—Locate Baby Grand which is featured prominently now in the first section of the blog. I do not pretend to understand it, but it links my blog with Google Earth and is routed through the AGLCA (America’s Great Loop Cruising Association) Looper Locator website. You can download Google Earth if you don’t have it already and see a satellite photo of where we are.
You can also click on Track This Boat in Google Earth and see our entire trip this summer and we will be adding the track for our entire Loop. Zoom in and out of our hot air balloon icon and you will see the satellite photo as well as interesting photos of the area. I played with this for 2 hours, and even though I’ve been to all those places, it was a whole different perspective. Enjoy.
