Finally!

Well, I'm finally getting my act together on this blogging thing. Of course, I had to choose the hottest time of the year to start an outdoor project! We're expecting 100 degrees plus over the next few days, and it's only going to get hotter--so expect a lot of stationary stuff to begin with.

In this blog, I will be documenting my efforts to develop tracking and awareness skills. You will see a variety of activities drawn from many sources, and I'll try to acknowledge those sources where appropriate.

One of the real challenges will be to maintain the Beginner's Mind. As one gains proficiency, it's easy for the Ego to hijack the process. Every so often, I have to get a stick out and whack the little bugger back into its place. Perhaps letting the whole world watch the process will keep things under control.
