Blog Status 5 Jun 2012

Posted on 21:06 by Unknown
Rumors of my demise are greatly exaggerated. :)

 Yes, I still exist even though I haven't been blogging much lately. My new job requires a good deal of commuter travel. Commuting more than 2 hours a day in heavy Southern California urban traffic seems to have sapped my energy to the point where blogging isn't very appealing, even blogging on a fascinating subject like stoves.

Time also is far more dear. With my old job, I had in effect an extra 2.5 hours per day. Those extra 2.5 hours per day are now a thing of the past. Still, I hope to periodically post some updates, and who knows my job situation may change again.  I'm still getting out and dealing with interesting stoves, stoves which I think are worthy of your attention, stoves that I'd like to share with you.

My first priority is of course to keep my family fed, clothed, and housed. My stove blog will never make any real money, and I'll never come anywhere close to being able to earn a living through blogging, so my blog is and will remain just a hobby. My family must of course come first. I do hope you understand and will bear with me.  

In order to whet your appetite, here are a few previews of coming attractions:
The new Primus OmniLite Ti (Right)
Baking on the trail.
Snow melting 101
The Snow Peak white gas stove (a personal favorite)
Wood stoves compared

Stay tuned!
