New, improved website!
As always, there’s still lots to do here. The main thing was to get a new framework up and running, and have a format where people can upload comments, pictures, video and all that cool stuff. And have it be easily updated. The blog part of the site will help keep it current, and the pages will hold the more static information.
There will be some learning curve, but lots more activity and information on the site.
