Where Did You Go?

I've went poof on this website in about 2007. Frankly, I just got sick of writing. I've been on an extended break. Got married, been traveling, working on other people's websites and not my own. I became fascinated with permaculture and have turned my yard into a food forest. I'll be back soon with new direction for this site.

It started as raw hand coded HTML, then progressed to Microsoft Active Server Pages and then was on a combined PHP (Wordpress) and .asp compiler and then that ended. There are a LOT of broken links and very odd content layouts. I've decided to fix it all and restore this website to it's full glory and then move forward with new thoughts. But it won't be quick. - Rob, Dec 2023.
