Hello.

A couple of years ago I took down this blog, in part because life had intervened and become distracting and I’d stopped updating it, but mostly because with how I’d originally set it up nearly 20 years ago, it’d become increasingly cumbersome and expensive to maintain and keep running.

I’ve since gotten back into a little tramping again, though. As well as catching up on a back-log of FMC Bulletins, I’ve also gotten my act together and found a more efficient way to make the blog work again, I hope. I don’t think blogs are quite as significant in the world today as they were pre-2010, especially given how much info is exchanged through social media, but my main reason for this has always been as motivation to scribble down notes about where I’ve been. I think it’s still good for that. Therefore I’ve restored all the backups and will probably spend the next few weeks tinkering and getting various bits on the sides to work properly again. Once I get around to it, I’m also hoping to fill in some space with a handful of reports of trips I’ve done during the time things were down.

If you happen to stumble on this, then enjoy.
