This isn’t a New Year’s resolution post–there are lots of those.  This is a a realization post.  I’ve tried blogging repeatedly over the past few years, but always a blog with a specific focus.  This blog was specifically supposed to be about our travel.  I’ve realized however, that the title, “Wanderings”, can apply to so many other things–all of the passions and concerns that I have;  things I want to share. With that said, from today forth, this blog is not only about travels, but also about the way my mind wanders–from topic to topic and goal to goal(that’s frightening).  Will there be travel?  Of course.  We are off for Yellowstone again in April and will be staying  until September.  Will there be photography–what’s life with my camera?   It will also,  however, be a place for me to talk about education..I may be retired, but I still am opinionated about that field.  It will be a place for politics, and weather and, of course, handworks.  Whether knitting or bookbinding or whatever other creative impulse strikes me.   So, with that said, may you have the power to spin your own dreams this year.
