This is supposed to be a simple web site. There is no database functionality, place to blog or leave a comment. It is an opportunity to learn about web development and share some content with family and friends.

The main web pages are done in HTML with a text editor. Most of what I know about HTML can be found in SunCam continuing education course in the link below. The picture browsing pages are generated by XnView (a free picture browser that is in the links below). I did make some custom templates in XnView for the photo page creation. This was mostly so that these photo album would be more phone friendly when viewing (Note: I have stayed away from the swip screen to navigate prictures. As near as I can tell this would require me to implement java script or some other options beyond HTML. I wanted to keep it more basic, so I've kept the button navigation approach). Any illustrations, information page sheets, calendars, web buttons or arrows were done with Inkscape (a free illustration application that is in the links below). My son, who helped me get the hosting site and the initially set up done, also installed "git" for version control and backups. It makes a few extra steps when you are pushing content to the hosting site, but hasn't been that bad to implement.

The following pages are the focus of this web site:

• Home: That is this page.
• Projects: Mostly home building and renovation type projects.
• Gear: Review of gear and equipment.
• Tech: Electronic equipment such as computers, cameras, drones and some software.
• Trips: Hikes, boating and travel to various places.
• Other: Miscellaneous stuff that doesn't fit in the above list.
