Range of Light is the proud owner of a new blogging engine! Now we can tell our stories and file trip reports with even more technological glory!
On the outside, our new stories page looks similar to the old one, but it has some nifty new features. Readers can now search by tag, date or author, very exciting! On the backend, we’ll now be able to blog more easily from anywhere and from any device. That means our tall tales will arrive faster and with even larger distortions of the truth, even if we have to send them in by carrier pigeon.
We’re so excited about this new addition to Range of Light that we thought it only fitting to celebrate with a special addition….
Back in the summer of 2005 Melody and I hiked 700 miles along the length of the Sierra Nevada on the Pacific Crest Trail. I was one of our first major adventures together and the first time we keep an electronic journal. Things were really different in 2005. We used a PocketMail to right our journals and sent them via an audio modem (you know, hold it up to a pay phone) to a friend’s email who in turn posted them to our website.
The journals lived at Range of Light for a a year or two but got lost somewhere along the way. We’ve now found and posted them here on our new Range of Light blog. Please check them out.
These journals are certainly a fascinating insight into how melody and I started adventuring together. They also feature many of you, our bestest friends, and are a lovely window into some wonderful years.
Enjoy!
