This week has been pretty busy, including last weekend. I sat down to work up the January 2009 issue of the Alabama Sierran that I do each month only to discover some unforeseen problems with my new laptop. Really not so much a problem with the laptop as it was a problem with an older version of QuarkXpress I’ve been using to design the newsletters and much of the other print work I do.

Thus, a forced migration to an admittedly better program, Adobe InDesign. All is better now, but it did force me to recreate the newsletter and start recreating an annual report I do each year. Anyway, I’m off to Centerville, Alabama this morning to talk with the Bibb County folks about tourism and their upcoming website. Here’s what the Alabama Sierran turned out like:
