Returned Home From Camping And Several Surprises

 

A Milestone Week

It has been an interesting week. My wife and I just returned from our second camping trip, and when I checked on my blog, I noticed the page counter had reached 500,000 views. Flattering, to say the least.

I started this blog back in December 2012. Thirteen years may seem like a long time to reach that number, especially with today’s social media platforms and bloggers who have thousands of followers. Still, this feels like a meaningful milestone to me.

This blog started—and remains—a place where I share a few short weekly paragraphs about my outdoor adventures. To everyone who follows along:                                        Thank You!. I truly appreciate your interest in my adventures.

A New Trail Camera Opportunity

While we were away, a trail camera manufacturer contacted me about offering a free trail camera solar package. I am still working out the details and will share more in a future post.

A Long-Awaited Loon Photo

Finally, I captured a photo of a loon with a chick riding on its back. That shot has eluded me for years, and I am thrilled to have had the opportunity. Sometimes it really does come down to being in the right place at the right time.

Back to the Trail Cameras

Now it is time to get the hiking boots back on and start checking trail cameras again.
