As the New Year jumpstarts into February, looking back on the first month of 2008 there has not been a whole lot I have done or photographed worth more than the space it takes up on a computer. Either that or the stories are holding, waiting in the queue to be published. Much time has been spent getting contest entires ready and helping the staffers do the same. A roller skating -- yes, roller-skating -- injury briefly got in the way last week.

So I have been quiet, but that will change this week. Sorry for the inconvenience.
