Blog of the Week : 07/26 - 08/01 2009

After a 2 week hiatus, the 'Blog of the Week' is back and for the week of July 26th to Aug 1st 2009, the selection is "Doodlepalooza". This blog is not only a very new addition to the NL BlogRoll but is a fairly new addition to the blogosphere as well. This space from John Andrews began in November of 2008 and features a collection of doodles and prints from the talented artist with a sprinkle of commentary throughout. It's a great blog and another helpful reminder of how much artistic talent is in this province.

Neglected Newbies

It turns out that setting up a new email address for the blog roll to keep things organized kinda back fired. With new emails not coming to my main email address as a friendly reminder to myself, the addition of some new blogs have been neglected... until today. My apologies to those who have been waiting for a while to get this done.

Without any further delay, here are the newest additions:

AND we have one blog coming back to the roll after it went off the air for a brief period:

To everyone else, please take the time to visit the newbies and say hello while you're there!

I Am Back

Yeah, I know I promised a new blog selection for this past Sunday, but I underestimated what I'd have to do when I got back to town after being on the road for a week. I do promise to have a new one next week though... and I won't break this promise.

Gros Morne is absolutely beautiful by the way. Spectacular. If you've never been and you enjoy the outdoors, I definitely suggest you taking a trip. I'll post some pics when I get a chance.

ALSO, why in the H E DOUBLE HOCKEY STICKS, are we going to allow any power line to go through here. I could NOT beleive this news when I read it...

... more on that later.

I'll also add some new blogs to the roll this week... Stay tuned!

Vacation Time!

I just wanted to give any readers and roll members a heads up that I will not be near a PC on Sunday coming and thus will not be selecting a new Blog of the Week this week. The initiative will return on the following Sunday.

As for why, well it's because I'll be hitting the road early tomorrow heading to the west coast for a week of camping in beautiful Gros Morne National Park. I haven't been there since I was a wee lad and am really looking forward to seeing all that beauty once again. Maybe I'll share some pictures with you apon my arrival, should you be interested.

So, until next week, keep on rolling!

Blog of the Week : 07/05 - 07/11 2009

The 'Blog of the Week' for July 5th to July 11th 2009 is "Elfshot: Sticks and Stones". Like last weeks selection, this blog is a fairly new addition to the roll and a very welcome one. It's the first of it's kind (with it's kind being archeologically inclinded) to be added to the listing. Until Tim Rast and Elfshot came around, there was no blog representation for the archeology community in the province. While this space of Tims is more used as exposure for his wonderful home made crafts, it also features a varity of posts on the overall subject of archeology and craft making in general. A must visit for fellow enthusiests!
