The Journey


As summer comes to end, you may be wishing for a just another glimpse. The vast spaces of open country can inspire us to look within.  Here's my recipe for sweet summer day getaway:
  • Pull out some old favorite CDs or make a new playlist for a road trip
  • Ask a friend to come along who either loves to drive or has a passion for photography too
  • Pack a picnic basket with water, lunch, and snacks
  • Dress for the warm weather and tie back your hair, this might be a windows rolled down kind of day
  • Decide ahead of time if you will capture the sunrise or the sunset 
  • Charge your camera battery and empty your memory card or stick the night before
  •  Bring a map, smart phone, or GPS to get you home, after you get lost of course
  • Enjoy the Journey

  2. That sounds so nice!!! I would love to do that.

    To answer your question- it's about the SEO. I heard a lot of people say that their numbers more than doubled when they made the switch & it was nearly instant. I'm still trying to decide if I will change my URL & redirect or if I will just transfer everything. The other thing is figuring out costs- getting a lot of conflicting info on what I will be able to do for free & what I have to pay for upfront. Wish I knew someone who has done this so I could pick their brain. Thinking about putting a poll on the blog to see what my readers think of a name change.

    1. Thanks Gina!

      I have done it before myself and wasn't pleased with the results so I move back to blogger. Although, I do host it with an another service and have my own domain. You may want to try that first.
