You might be aware that last month I moved Great Stems from Movable Type to WordPress. I didn’t realize that the feed would be disrupted, but of course it was. That means some readers have missed out on all the latest posts, and I feel terrible about it!
This post is dual-purpose. One is to remind readers that there is a new Feed link on the sidebar if you want to be easily updated when a new Great Stems post is created (scroll to the bottom of the sidebar to “Feed Me, Seymour”). The other is to test our attempt to revise the previous feed to ping all those who haven’t yet updated.
Of course, I hate to create a post without a photo, so I’m sharing one of a turtle we rescued this morning. My teenage son was learning to drive at the time, so let me just say that it was ONE LUCKY TURTLE. Actually, technically at that point I was back in the driver’s seat, but a few minutes earlier it might have been a big splat on the road.
Meredith,
We have totally missed reading your posts. Had no ideal you moved the blog. I have added you to my blogger blog list on my side bar and yes it worked just fine.
Your trip out west looks exciting. I really liked your Common Branded Skipper (if I got the ID correct, western skippers are not something I see everyday living on the east coast).
Randy, it was so complicated moving the blog that it didn’t even occur to me that the feeds would change. Live and learn! You are good to ID the skipper — they are on my “wish list” when it comes to ID skills.
Thanks for the note about the feed change. I had been wondering why I hadn’t been seeing anything new from you for a while… I assumed a busy summer. And now I see you’ve got some great trip posts I need to catch up on — yahoo! 🙂
Alan, I’m so glad to see your friendly face (so to speak)!
second attempt. I now have your feed coming to my Google Reader again.
Thanks, Diana — I’ve been a bit behind on my blog posts, but I’m glad you are connected again! A new post is definitely on its way today.
Meredith: I’ve been going through Blotanical and haven’t had trouble accessing your blog. But congrats on the new design and interface. Everything looks great!
Good to hear, Plant Postings. And thanks!
I was just looking out my motel window – in Bozeman, MT-at a the top of a spruce tree – where all the cones are – and was thinking of you. Didn’t realize I was missing your blog in my reader since you have put most of the links on Facebook. But they are all back and I’m hoping to follow in your footsteps (car wheels?) in a few days as I spend a couple of weeks traveling by a circuitous path to Ely, MN and then back through Yellowstone the last week of September.
Hope you are having a wonderful time, Marilyn!
Glad to find you again. Looks like you’ve been on some AMAZING travels. Pictures are just breathtaking!!
Thanks, Toni! Getting back into the swing of things here at last…. Good to hear from you!
