So, most, if not all of you who read my blog posts know that following me around requires a road map sometimes.............
Back in the late Spring and early Summer, I began writing from a new blog address. It was titled Fishin4Walter. I had made a few posts and it was up and running. I had notified a bunch of my BlogBuddies that would be where they could find me.
Well, sometimes things don't go quite as expected. A number of personal family issues cropped up that required all of my time if they were going to be dealt with. Blogging would have to take a back seat. So I stopped blogging! I figured I would just start up again when the time was right and everything would go like clockwork. I know others who have had similar experiences, so, I figured it won't be any big deal.
Three months or so past and the family needs were back under control and I was ready to hit the blogging trail again!
Not quite so fast there, Gramps! Somehow, someway, my blog had disappeared.......
Well, at least, my access had disappeared to the above link to my blog...... Hmmm........
Try as I might to re-access my blog, apparently, Blogger had a different idea. That old blog link is no longer registered in my name. Therefore, nothing can be added at that website!
So, that is how most of you ended up back here. I had to develop a new Blogger account, and, start a new blog. Obviously, that meant a new blog title and address. I was thinking, ok, I will just start a new Fishin' 4 Walter blog and move my old posts over to the new address.
Blogger folks said, "NO". That title is not available and has been archived!
So..... here we are at Gramps Fishing Journal. I sincerely apologize to all my blogging friends for creating such a runaround scenario. Blogger has convinced me that I must be at fault somewhere.
Well, as you can see, I don't take to being told "NO" well. With that said, although I cannot add to my old blog, I certainly don't have any problems going there and copying "MY" posts and bringing some of them over here. So watch for them. You may have read them before, but, a refresher read won't hurt you. I will not bring over all the comments. So if you have time don't hesitate to leave a comment anew.
I will show them they can't keep an Old Dog down.............................................
Even scary old crows shouldn't keep a determined angler off the water today. Grab a hand full of candy on your way out the door and enjoy your day. In my case, I will have too exercise double time over the next week to keep up with my candy intake.
Now, as far as those fish go!..............................
Ok, now, with that said, lets all move along here.
I have been away from the blogging scene for a couple of months. Too busy to detail all that has happened. It has been a Summer of health issues (My Wife's), transitioning grandchildren into the adult world, helping my daughter and her family move (just across town a ways, but, still), spider bites and irritation from such, and, arthritic pain all in the past (120) days or so.
I didn't really think I would be back on the blogging scene. Wiped out my past blogs and access too them, turned Facebook into just a family affair, and, otherwise took the steps I felt necessary to have the time to deal with all of the above.
After spending quite a bit of time talking to Jesus, we have come to the agreement, that all will be fine and I can return to fishing and talking about fishing with my online friends. Hope to see a few of few stop by once in awhile...........
I will write about my fishing experiences, my time in the outdoors, and, other fish blabber. If nothing else, it will be a place for my kids and Grandkids to enjoy and keep as memories of Gramps!
That is my mission statement with this blog, unless, it isn't.........................
Remember,
