Blog Stats & Jig Saws

My Blog has slowly increased in readership.  As a rule a blog is supposed to have a consistent theme aimed at a particular audience but this one is more your open diary with a theme of what happened today.  So not necessarily appealing to the masses. Nevertheless the primary statistic went past 25,000 hits today in the years since I started it.  I have read some blogs and never been back to them so I expect there is a lot of that in these numbers.  I wouldn't mind getting the monthly rate up to 1000.

I finished my map puzzle a couple of days back so it took around 2 weeks. I think 2000 pieces is the most I can handle but even in these cabin fever days I might give jig saws a rest for a while.

Big 40

This is the official 40th day and we made it a bit of  rest day after three fairly touristy packed days.  We went for a walk thru the parkland here in a Japanese garden.  There are a lot of Japanese here for a place they bombed. Don't mention the War. We did some shopping at WalMart and I now have three new pairs of shorts. Lunch was in the old town (a bit rundown). Jackie Reys place was an old bank and the best building in town. We had a steak sandwich (half each) and laid around on the black sand til 4:30pm.  The worst no phasement moment was when I got my camera wet and is now useless.
