I've succumbed to my blogging peers!

I've officially joined the blogging world simply because I don't have time to update everyone.
Blogs are a great way to go because you (family, friends) only have to check in if you want to get the Pike scoop -- feel free to ignore me, and I'll never know.

Now I just need to figure out this thing. I really don't know what I'm doing -- hopefully the appearance and content will improve over time, and I can keep this site engaging and timely.
