If you will cast your eye to the address bar of your
browser, you will notice that the blog is now at http://www.theurbannomads.ca/ . What
does that mean and why did I do this?
As I was uploading yesterday’s blog entry I noticed a
setting where I could put in my own domain name yet still have the blog hosted
by www.blogger.com . This seemed like a nifty idea and would fit
well with my concept of one website www.geoffreywestlock.com
being the hub for a few different websites, the blog being one of them.
So I went to register my domain name, but found that most
of the ones around “Urban Nomad” were taken, so I ended up with www.urbannomads.ca (with the “s” at the
end).
Since I am alone it seems silly to have that “s” there
but this was the best choice, other than going with some silly hyphenated
domain name.
It is still possible that I well get a woman who will join
me on this journey and thereby validating the “s.” For now though, I am saying
that the “s” stands for me and my girls . . . Treabilla and Wanda (My truck and
trailer).
I plan to dress up this blog a bit and make it look and
feel a bit more like a website in the days and weeks to come. Part of that will
be the link to the soon to be main website. This will be needed as I move
towards the summer and I start to write the book about this experience. As I have
said before I will not start to write that book until after my credit cards are
paid off.
My (Tanea) book editing is going well and I am quickly
making my way through it. It will be one more pass after this one before it
goes off to be “graded” and hopefully on its way to being published. So many
projects to manage, so I will need to manage my time as I work on all of them.
