Roaming South America

Website updated with new backend code

September 23, 2019

I recently added a new section to the site, called My Writings. That section contains miscellaneous stuff that I have written - poems, essays, general ramblings that are not included in the typical blogs. I also set up a directory listing of all the English lessons I have written over the past 6 years of teaching English as a foreign language. And I have made a change to the blogs pages, as you may have noticed here on this home page. It now shows only the most recent/current blog. The previous blogs are in the section called "Old Blogs". I have also set up the site to be backed by a database so the blogs are being fed from the DB, as well as the other pages. Only the English lessons page isn't coming from the DB, it is a listing of a directory on the server. All of these changes should result in a faster loading site. I hope.

The picture - I just took that pic a few minutes ago from my front door. The real-life sunset had much more color than the pic shows - it was a fantastic orange and yellow sunset. Phone cameras suck.
