places we love

We’re Back! Back in the saddle and ready to rock!

Howdy Folks! WE ARE BACK!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 So, we have been gone for a few days and we now have our new site up and running. Fanfare? Nope, not really. That’s ok though because we are very happy with the results. Thanks to Chel Pixie for her help. She was extremely patient and is a wonderfully knowledgeable ninja. 

Sure there are still a few kinks to be worked out (broken links, missing links and missing content – so sad) and our friends over at the old wordpress site (click here) will be wondering where we went. Well if they go there the will see that we have moved over here.

So, what’s changed?

Well there is a laundry list of good stuff. Some technical (livefyre and comment luv got added – ahem, no affiliates just love) and there is some better built-in functionality for us.

  • We added a video so you can see what http://theviewfromhere.ca is all about! Check it out in our sidebar.
  • We updated our About Page. Now you really know what’s up over here!
  • We added a Need Some Help? Page. It’s kind of self explanatory.
  • We’ve got some new links!
  • We’ve added some categories on the home page and tightened up our content offering.

Why the heck did we do all this?

Well because after a year of blogging we simply LOVE doing this stuff. We LOVE learning something new and this site is going to keep us on our toes. We LOVE sharing our experiences with you. It’s that simple. We LOVE accepting a new challenge and this is certainly taking us there. And last but not least we LOVE to act on making things better for everyone.

This site is for you!

 

 

 

 

 

 

We have said this all along and now is the time to reinforce this edict.  We love bringing this stuff to you and over time it will continue to get better and it will continue to grow but in the interim we need to get you back! We had a great readership (52 strong), a great bunch of contributors and a fantastic feeling from the people who stopped by to visit.

So, tell your friends, share the link and stop by often.

We are here working hard to bring you the best content we can within our ability. You help and your contribution, in whatever form you wish to give, not money or gifts, but in words of your own or simply a visit once in a while is GREATLY APPRECIATED!

With love.

  

 

 

P.S. Just so the title of the post makes sense and to show you where we got our inspiration from here’s a little video from the ultimate cowboy himself; Gene Autry. Hahahahahahaha…….if you only knew me…..;-)

Hi Ralph,

 

I like the new digs. Your share box is hovering over part of the page and covering some of your content. I am using Firefox right now, don't know what it looks like in other browsers.

 TheJackB thanks for dropping by. Funny, the share box is on the left side of the page for me. I wonder if it has to do with screen resolution. I will check it out. Thanks for the heads up thought.

 rdopping Just checked it out in Chrome and didn't see any issues. Guess it is browser related.

 TheJackB Good to know. Browsers are an enigma to me. Maybe i will go exclusively to Chrome. It's the only place Basecamp works for me too. Thanks again for your support and comments.

 TheJackB rdopping I usually sign in to livefyre sites using twitter. How do I sign in/ what do I need to do to get "My latest conversation" blog link to show up?

TheJackB 2022 pts

 KDillabough I think that if you sign up for a Livefyre account you can adjust your settings so that your latest conversation shows up, provided that the blog you are on has that feature enabled.

I like it; I will be back to dig in a little deeper, but cool beans so far.

 

BTW - Florida does have some pretty nice tracks.........:).

@bdorman264 Thanks Bill. Appreciated. You can join up now and never miss a post ever again. How cool is that? That is if I can ever get Aweber to work properly.

Thank God! I thought you're closing the blog. Well happy anniversary! Make sure to celebrate it properly, like you deserve. I'll be here as usual and I wish you a lot more growth in the next year, inspiring people, connecting, sharing, building.

rdopping 1099 pts moderator

Ha! Thanks so much. My first visitor on my brand new site. So exciting.
