Hey Steemians!! So, here I am finally making my self known to all you,....
My intro pic with a photo bomb by @gringalicious
My daughter @fullofhope had to photobomb too, of course
The two pics above were taken yesterday while riding the HIAWATHA TRAIL in Montana, which you can see and read more about in the post by @gringalicious at Riding The Hiawatha Trail through the Montana Mountains!
A tad about me:
I am a late 40's husband and father of seven amazing children. At the moment, two of which are married ( @uglysweater to @rigaronib and @alovelymess to @drobinson ). For the past 4 years, we have lived in Southern Chile, Patagonia, as some call it. Just within the past several weeks, we have made the move back to North Idaho.
My wife of 28 years and I are self diagnosed crazy people. Ask my kids, they will agree. We're freedom lovers, free thinkers and are always in the pursuit of knowledge. Sometimes that knowledge causes you to do some crazy things, as is indeed the case with us. - Lots more on that in future posts.
We are avid believers in the golden rule, "Do unto others as you'd have them do unto you!" With this principal, you'll encounter some amazing people along your journey. I feel like I can relate with a very, very wide percentage of people in one way or another. Lots more on this subject in future posts.
I discovered Steemit in July of 2016. When I came across it, I knew this platform would be a perfect fit my food blogging daughter ( @gringalicious ). I immediately showed her, but at first she had very little interest. I could go into that detail, but it's not relevant at the moment. It took me almost an entire month before she tried her first post. She was graced by a gracious welcome from @blocktrades. Well, after that first post, she was hooked.
As time went on, I continued to study the idiosyncrasies of Steemit and I saw the huge potential. As is common in the path of a Steemian, you just feel like your posts are not gaining any traction and you wonder if it is all worth, especially when the price of Steem is at $0.08, which it was for quiete some time. But, with Dad's encouragement @gringalicious stuck with it, and I am extremely proud of her. Lots more on this in future posts
So, with my studies of Steemit and crypto in general, AND with the success of @gringalicious, we have been able to bring other family members and friends on board. If you haven't said hello to them yet, please go give them a visit:
