Blog Kick-Off
Well, this is my second attempt at starting a blog. Last year I did a whole two entries, so we'll see if I can get a little further this time.
My name is Jonathan Hodges and I turned 48 three days ago. The reason I'm starting the blog is that I've been recently reading my great-grandfather Vernon Hodges' journal -- he began it in 1926 and faithfully maintained it until shortly before his death in 1943. Vernon started writing at age 50, so I thought it would be interesting to see the difference in the thoughts and comments to two men of approximately the same age separated by eighty years. Chances are it will only be interesting to me.
Anyway, I'm still deciding the best way to display Vernon's journal -- as monthly files on my website; as daily musings in the entended entry section of this blog; or making a completely separate blog for him.
Guess this is enough for my first post -- more tomorrow.
