The Sinclair Trails blog now uses a white background in light mode, and now supports dark mode, which will be used based on your system preference. Plus there’s a button in the bottom-right corner to manually toggle. Enjoy the easier-on-the-eye site!

I just updated my About This Site page; it had been a while since it was updated.
Sinclair Trails blog 🔗🚌 #MediaMonday
Check out my blog about our full-time travel around the US in a 40-foot luxury motorhome. A new post every day about travel days, places we explore, RV enhancements and repairs, new food experiences, and more.
Back to one post per day on the Sinclair Trails blog now. The posts have caught up to about a week behind; I like to have a bit of a buffer against days where nothing interesting happens. For the most part, we work during the week, and explore on weekends.
Note: I’ll be doing new Sinclair Trails posts (and links to them here) two or occasionally three times per day for a while, to catch up; the posts are about two weeks behind where we are currently. Enjoy the extra content!
I started this blog on January 1, 2018, with a goal of posting one photo every day. Which I achieved for 1,346 days… until we had no internet during our Yellowstone trip, resulting in some missed days. Oh well, streaks are made to be broken. That might happen more often as we travel with uncertain internet connectivity, though we plan to stay in places with cell coverage, and will get technology to boost our connectivity, since we need internet access for our work.
The new Sinclair Trails blog is now automatically cross-posted to Micro.blog and Twitter. Follow @SinclairTrails on your favorite social network! (Unless that’s Facebook… I would cross-post to that too, but they don’t allow automatic posting. Their loss.)
Fun fact: I have a TextExpander snippet to write the Throwback Thursday text, that automatically includes the appropriate week number and year, thusly:
#! /bin/tcsh
set w=`date +"%U"` ; set y=`expr 1969 + $w + 1` ; echo "For week/year $w of my 52 years celebration, from ${y}: . #ThrowbackThursday #52years"
Which outputs:
For week/year 31 of my 52 years celebration, from 2001: . #ThrowbackThursday #52years
I’m still working on getting my new Sinclair Trails blog set up. The site is operational, but there’s a configuration issue that prevents posting to the blog via MarsEdit. I’m working with my hosting provider to fix it, but they’re rather slow.
I’ve just created a new blog for my and Jenn’s RV adventures. The SSL certificate is still in the works, and more posts will be coming once the site is fully operational, but here it is: Sinclair Trails.
