It has come time (finally) to upgrade our site.  This is mainly an experiment, a change-over to a Wordpress-based platform in an attempt to please the Google Search Gods.  It is clear from my study of the ever-changing world of Search Engine Optimization and it's effects on search results, that the blogging platform was much favored by the search engines.  Thus, rather than attempt to merely skin the blog to look like the rest of the site, I decided to redo the entire site using their framework.

After several months of tinkering with different aspects of the site, such as custom headers, images, and fonts, contact forms, image sliders and style sheets, I have become confident that I can maintain the original functionality and overall look of the site, while also making it more search engine friendly.

Also, I really really like web design, and revising the site on a regular basis allows me to keep learning new things.

I hope everyone likes the finished result.  With any luck, I'll be able to revise the site in the coming days  (and possibly weeks, considering my work schedule) in such a way that it will look good on multiple devices and browsers, something any web designer worth their salt should be capable.  So visit us often and update those bookmarks!
