Frostfrog

As is so often the case, I have been traveling and thus mostly neglecting COTD and my new cat blog, that is not the real blog, as that will come in the fall.
What a strange life I lead! One week ago today I was on the ice of the Chukchi Sea of the Arctic Ocean, being a true frostfrog as I documented an Eskimo village pulling in a bowhead whale, immediately after my friend from there was buried.
Now I am in Salt Lake City, about to go to wedding number 2 for my niece and her husband. Wedding number 1 was in Bangalore, India, where I managed to get a few pretty decent "Cats Met Along The Way" photographs, which will eventually appear in my real blog, sooner or later. As a preview, maybe I will put one of them into an entry that I plan to make soon after I return home.
Yesterday, I spotted a couple of cats here in SLC, but kind of got stiffed in my efforts to photograph and learn about them.
Still, I made my first "in the field" blog entry, based on those two cats. All COTD'ers are invited to check it out. Comments are welcome.
The experimental blog is still most crude, but I am learning little things about it and I think I will soon redo all the entries that I have thus far made to make it flow more like I want it to.
Still, when I start the real blog, I think I am going to have to break away from this pre-packaged, generic, google format, rent some server space (or buy a server) and build the thing completely from scratch.
Here is the learning blog, plus the beginnings of what I hope to make into my comprehensive website:
