At writer's conferences over the past two years, I've noted a lot of interest for journalists to get up to speed with New Media, from establishing their first website or blog to using social networking effectively. ...

I've been so busy DOING them I haven't been writing about them! I have, however, been posting sets of photos to my Facebook account. I don't want to post out of state photos here so they don't get into the front page slide show. ...

Join me at the Florida Hiking Festival for a walk along some of the Florida Trail's most spectacular geology, including a tall waterfall and the only Class III rapids in Florida. I'll be leading this hike after the closing ceremonies of the Florida Hiking Festival; it's a round-trip of less than 6 miles. There's no reg...istration fee, but the hike is only open to festival attendees. Sign up for the festival at http://www.floridatrail.org

Hooray! More of you here. I posted my latest batch of photos from the Wednesday hike at http://www.myfloridahikes.com/photo/albu ms/ft-lake-delancy-to-kerr-island

Sandra Friend Thanks to all of you who joined as fans! ;-)

Sandra Friend Thanks! Had a great time. Delancy to Kerr Island, stops at Grassy Pond and the 88 Store. Saw a bear! Alas, it was from my car and not the trail. But it was HUGE! Wish I had my camera ready, but it took off before I could grab it off the back seat. A fun hike, 9.5 miles. Chilly!

Sandra Friend I'll be hiking with the Wednesday Walks group tomorrow morning in the Ocala National Forest. Pics to follow!

Sandra Friend Hi, Bobby, thanks for becoming a fan ;-)
