Keeping up with the times

In an attempt to join the 21st Century, major personal advancements have recently occurred. Over the last month, thanks to the help (i.e. persistent pestering) of a dear friend, I have become semi-versed in texting and sending photos through my phone. Why stop there? An upcoming trip is the perfect opportunity to add blogging to my list of accomplishments! Interestingly enough, it was that same friend who set up this blog in the fall of 2006, and better late than never, this is my first post. So, don't expect daily posts, but do please check back every once in a while to see and hear about travels and adventures - my goal is to post twice a week while I'm in the Galapagos this time. Speaking of adventures, the title of the blog refers to a quote from Helen Keller. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. Enough said.
