Digital Route 66 – Travel Blog

Now that most of the Route 66 activity for the summer – the state Motor Tour and the Litchfield festival – has wound down things have seemingly come to a crashing halt.  I guess that much anticipation fulfilled so suddenly has quite the affect.

Confounding matters – at least regarding Digital Route 66 – is that my laptop suddenly decided that the motherboard didn’t need to function anymore, and thus my primary work device is AWOL.  Being a smart lad, I do regular backups of all my data, and the last such process was completed only a few days before the notebook died.  So everything’s safe.  It just makes it harder to function since few files are on my desktop and even less applications have been installed here.  My next website update was to be Gardner, and all sixty-six (!) pictures are sitting on the laptop waiting to be uploaded, while the HTML page is halfway complete and needed only an hour or so of tweaking.  Yes, it’s all on the external hard drive and could be recalled, but I’d have to copy over a slew of files plus install Dreamweaver just for that one page, and since I could have the laptop back as soon as early next week I might as well wait.

In the next several weeks I also hope to get out to several businesses here in the Litchfield area and hit them up for Association membership and/or newsletter advertisements.  Not being a natural salesman, hopefully I won’t come up too short.
