Collector's Crack is Dead! Long Live Collector's Crack!!

My 10 year blog-o-versary quietly came and went mid-October.  Hard to believe I've had this and a couple of my other blogs that long.  You may have noticed that my quantity and quality of posts has dwindled to almost nothing.  But I believe that's actually not a bad thing.  To be fair I'm still pretty active over at the Yount Collector and A Pack to be Named Later so I haven't completely given up the ghost, but for the most part I haven't really had anything to say.

Let's catch you all up on the last year or so.  I recently took a new job working for the Alaska Department of Transportation working in their Highway Data Division.  I was getting pretty stressed out at my last job and it was taking it's toll on my well being and I'm happy to say that where I landed is pretty awesome.  I work with a great group of people, I get to be outside most of the spring, summer, and fall, and on top of that I work a 4 day work week, which means 3 days weekends all the time!!  It's taken me some time to feel comfortable in my new position, but slowly I've found my groove.

That being said I've given it a lot of thought and I've decided I wanted to make a effort here at the Collector's Crack.  My goal at least to start is to put out one new, well thought out, and researched post every week.  Well maybe I'll try for once a week, the well thought out and researched may come later.  Anyway cheer to those of you still around and reading blog and to those that still put out great blog content.

  1. Good luck to you getting back to posting--I know it can be tough to stay in the habit even when you do have time available.

  2. Should be easy to whip out some Yount posts, or even your GPK stuff.

  8. Almost everyone is slowing down, either deliberately or by consequence. Nice to know not everyone is completely bailing!
