I’ve added a page to the blog describing roughly how it was that I managed (clumsily?) to get this WordPress blog set up and running on a newly configured server. Hopefully it may help others to do the same and, more importantly, when the day comes for me to do it again maybe it will be a little less difficult. 😉

4:30!
Actually this post is at about 7:10pm MDT.
In a most frustrating fashion, I’ve been trying to use the WordPress “post by email” feature but the post seemed to just disappear even though the emails did seem to be getting through to the server. Finally, I found them hiding as “scheduled entries” all about 6 hours out. Why???
UTC – MDT = 6 hours
Wanna bet that the email timestamp is MDT and the server is using UTC?

Here is a view of our place from the air. This picture was taken in August 2006 when our friend Terry flew down from Edmonton with his family for a visit. Terry took us for a flight and this is the view we had of our house. Last time we were up to Edmonton to visit, Terry took us all up for city tours of Edmonton, so all of the kids have been able to go flying in a small plane (Cessna 172).

I just figured out how to add users, so that my posts look like they came from me, rather than the all-powerful admin. There should be a string of similarly inane posts as I test things out, so I’ll categorize them all in the “Noob” bucket.
