Busy with updating lately

-

It has been a while since I have sat down to update the blog with much more than some photos.  One of the biggest things I have been working on has been the website update.  I have moved  the hosting to a new provider and the site seems to load faster and have a quicker response time.  The look has been greatly updated and there is some tweaking to be done to get all the pages to have the same look and feel.  I had to put the site up before everything had the same layout because my old hosting plan was expiring and I didn’t want to pay for two host.  The new layout is a template style and since I really can’t get under the hood it will save me time but I need to go back and realign things to give all the pages beyond the front page the same layout.  I should have that done soon enough. You can see the new site here.

From feedback I have gotten the new site is easier to navigate and find the information you are looking for.  That makes me happy since that is exactly what I wanted.  I still have lots of photos to retouch and a ton of shooting to do which also makes me happy.  Keep your eyes open for even more exciting things.

This began as a very simple request, I was asked to take a photo of an old school building before it was torn down. Click for a larger view.  You may purchase a print of this photo here. This particular building was home to St. Joseph school (and later renamed Gehlen Catholic) in my hometown of LeMars, Ia.  As the area, town and school grew additional buildings were built and eventually the original structure was no longer used or even safe to use.  On the right side of the photo you can see the original church and pastor's house.  Just a few weeks after I took this shot the building was gone.  Talk about lucky timing.  The pastors house is no longer there either.  The block looked very different to say the least. At the same time it was becoming evident that the original church building was in ne
