Christmas 2008 photos

Lila, Eva and I spent a week up at my parents' house in Chassell, MI. We had a great time!

Snow fell continually, except for a beautiful blue sky on Christmas morning. Eva came down with a cold, so we did not spend much time outside. We did do a little sledding though.

Here are a couple photos of the girls from Christmas morning.

We drove down yesterday and today. What crazy weather! Yesterday was pure thick fog all the way through the U.P. and the Norther Lower, until evening, when we had a downpour along with the fog. Visibility was so bad, everyone was driving very slowly.

We spent the night in Gaylord. This morning at 7:15, the driveway outside the hotel was submerged with a river from the snowmelt. By 8:45 it was frozen solid.

So we hit the road for St. Charles and the highway was so bad that we were in a column of cars all moving 45 MPH or less, for hours. It was slow-going, but we made it in this afternoon.

Switching to WordPress

In 2003, I started this blog on the then young Blogger.com service, linked in with my web space at MSU. Shortly thereafter I switched to MovableType and stayed with MT for a few versions. In a recent MT upgrade, I wasn't pleased with the process. So, I've just switched to WordPress, which I had used for a number of prior web projects.

Over the next week the existing files at davingranroth.com/blog will go away and be redirected to blog.davingranroth.com, which is the WordPress-based site.

If you find broken links or missing files, please let me know so I can fix them. I should have taken care of the bulk of them already, though.
