My Favorite New Crusader

I don't think she wears a cape, but my friend Janet has become a crusader. Proof that telling the story, even if you think it will make you look extreme, is worth it.

It's funny when you read those things about how important it is to raise awareness, but it always seem like too small a thing. However, that's how things get changed, one person at a time.

Blurb

Earlier this year my pal Janet blogged about some interesting sites from a Time article. One of the sites was blurb.com. It was back in the summer and I didn't think much about it. But going to England gave me the idea to make a book of my pictures for those people in my life who are a little harder to buy for. Of course, I made one for myself as well.

The books arrived this week and it's been so much fun to have a professional looking book to drag it around to show everyone. It's been a big hit. Much easier than a bulky photo album. Much more streamlined than the 400 pictures I have up online.

It was a fun project to to do and it's a great keepsake from the trip.
