Update

In case anyone still checks this blog, you should know that I do not plan on making any more posts.  I have several drafts that I wrote for my own sake, but I have no intention for finalizing or publishing them.  If you are interested, please feel free to contact me.

Anyhow, I have continued to update the photo album (now at over 1400 pictures and videos) and I try to add meaningful comments as often as possible.  https://plus.google.com/photos/112802092097010289376/albums/6012741787245851409?authkey=CPKmgNLLo6iqxAE
