The Dog Days.






Have I mentioned I'm doing a Podcast ?
Well I am.  It's part of the Dog Days of podcasting,  which is a group of people that challenege themselves to make a podcast everyday during August.
I heard about the Dog Days when it was mentioned on one of the podcasts that I regularly listen too.
I though "that's a cool odea, I should try that"  and then didn't.  Not that year or the next. Finally this year as it was approaching I was determined to give it a try.

I thought about a few different titles and formats and went back and for , then decided on the title "My Commute" using the idea of talking about commuting while, commuting as a loose framework to really talk about what every I want.  But, it's usually connected to what I'm doing.or what's going on. Each day's cover art is also a photo I've taken.  Often taken on the parkway &  usually on the same day of the recording.

The Dog Days Of Podcasting Challenge ends at the end of the week. Most of the participants will wrap up their Dog Dags shows and some will go back to  their "regularly scheduled podcasts".
I don't have a regular show to go back to or continue with, but I don't really want to stop doing shows.

So, what I'm hoping to do is transition from the dog days into a new podcast. Sort of transform this show into something I can do once a week through the fall and winter and see how I feel about it in the spring.

That about all I can say for now about the new show is that it will have a new name, probably have  a weekly(ish) schedule and is likely to be at least a little longer than the 5 minutes long.

There's still lots to figure out & try out before I commit to any of the defeatist.
The immediate plan is the keep doing "My Commute" Daily into the first week of September (maybe a bit longer)  while I figure out what the new show will be like.

If your interested in the "My Commute"  Podcast there are links below.   It's a first attempt and ti's all on location at the side of the road & river.
So,  it's pretty rough.
But,  I think it's become almost tolerable.

Too Early for Summerfolk?

I'm planning to post old sumemrfolk photos (1997 -2010) online before the 3rd weekend in August. After collecting Summerfolk photos from old folders on old hard drives & copying them all to one location it was time to start sorting.

Sorting out 97-99 into individual years is going to be somewhere between difficult & impossible. I may end up dividing them in  some other way other than chronologically. 

It's fun to see some of the old pics and how things (& people) have changed, but it's amazing how little some things have stayed the same.

So far I've gotten through about 500 & there's still more to get through & then the daunting task of sorting out those early years.

Once there all sorted & ready to go I'll make another post & then the photos will be posted to Flickr in small (ish) batches each day leading up to this years summerfolk.
