January is in the middle of winter and while it does not have the shortest days, it is the coldest. I am spending more time lately anticipating springtime than I am thinking about what is happening right now. I justify this by noting that January is the most slow month when it comes to finding content. This January was unexpectedly dry and had almost no snowfall.
I am also using a new format this month, organizing pages by their topic rather than by when they took place. This new system should be much easier to use because you, the viewer can find information that you are interested in, rather than information that is most recent. Click on the blue "Read More" links below to read the full page.
Also, In case you haven't noticed, I changed the background color and text color, switching the site to "Dark Mode". In My opinion, this looks way better. If you argue with that then you are wrong.
