Figuring out a process… and making progress!

It’s been almost 2 weeks since I posted last. At that point I had intended to start posting material related to our trip out west here on the blog as well as building content pages and photo galleries on Haw Creek Outdoors.

I wasn’t satisfied with the process and wanted to figure something out a process that I could use for publishing material in a relatively short period of time.

Forty-eight hours ago, we were on our way home from a hike at a Woolly Hollow State Park north of Conway. Between then and now, I’ve edited all of the photos that I took and put together a new web-site format that will present the photos along with information about the place(s) where they were taken, with a fairly rapid turn-around.

The new format includes a wide center column where I’ll be including information and links relevant to the location that is being presented. Instead of having a separate photo gallery, the right hand column is used for that. Each image is linked to it’s respective page on flikr.com. An option is also provided to view the flikr slide show of my pictures.

Ideally, in the future, I’ll be able to research information in advance of our visit to a location and have the web page(s) up and ready for viewing much sooner than I’ve been able to do before this.
