Tongy Gold

Tony is nearly settled in his new temporary home: Kabul Afghanistan. It was an arduous journey with his final destination within Afghanistan not quite decided yet. The choices are narrowed down and one seems to be as miserable as the next. Flip a coin, they all suck!



Before Tony left, I set him up with his own blog using one of Blogger’s competitors, Wordpress. For any of you thinking about creating a blog for yourself, Blogger is much more user friendly initially, but does not offer as many bells and whistles as Wordpress.


For Tony, photos and videos will be a big part of his blog; blogger does not have video link capability yet so the decision was an easy one regarding which service to use. Mikey and I bought Tony a Flip camcorder for Christmas and it will lend itself well to this venue. We're looking forward to him utilizing that application as well as Flicker for his still photos.


Until Tony is a bit more settled and can find a little “down time”, I am managing the blog from KC. I have already posted a few short posts and today Tony sent his first lengthy entry in an email, which I cut and pasted to the blog. So for all intents and purposes, “Tongy Gold” (the name of Tony and Kat’s Honey business run out of their home in Tonganoxie, Kansas) is up and running!


Check it out, bookmark it to favorites, comment often, and pass it along to any friends who might be interested in following Tony on his journey. I promise you this… it will always be informative, it will come from a unique perspective, and will never lack entertainment value; Tony has a way with words!
