I&#8217;m sure dozens of my readers have stopped coming by and checking.  I&#8217;m OK with that.  Honestly I sort of thought I was just done with it.  Hey, this thing has been running a long time though, it seemed a shame.  Plus I just paid for three more years of domain registration.  In retrospect, maybe I should have gone with the one year option.  Oh well, hind sight and all that.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It would of course be impractical, if not impossible, to cover all our amazing adventures since Float Trip.  Or &#8220;both of them,&#8221; or whatever.  We had a few highlights;  Our annual Bottlerock music festival, a few nice camping trips in our motorhome, a big BBQ party to officially unveil my new smoker&#8230;  That is what comes to mind right off.  I also very nearly, and very permanently, screwed up my website.  I was &#8220;fixing it,&#8221; (not that it was broken, naturally,) and all of a sudden it was just gone.  Quite gone.  Just a blank white page where years and years of typing had been.  Luckily, I have been very good about taking backups.  The problem was, I didn&#8217;t really know how the backups worked&#8230;  I just turned it on and left it, several years ago.  Well, after some reading, I figured out how to do a restore.  I picked a date in mid-May, clicked the button, and boom it was magically back.  Whew.  Back until I fix it again, I imagine.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I s&#8217;pose that&#8217;s about it.  Another good thing, I have a lot of pictures to post.  Hey, content is content.  I think I&#8217;ll post a few this week, and a few next week, until I&#8217;m all caught up.  I don&#8217;t want to overwhelm everybody with information overload.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/rib-pan-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"4047\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=4047#main\" class=\"wp-image-4047\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/rib-pan-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/rib-pan-112x150.jpg 112w, https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/rib-pan-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.pkenagy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/rib-pan.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>Some pics from my barbecue party.
