Welcome to the new Geogypsy website!
Today I celebrate my 58th birthday, and my blog’s 1000th post birthday, and the birth of a new website for this geogypsytraveler.com. Yes, I like attention. Yes, this is all a Big Deal to me. Please say you’ll keep following my adventures through life.
I started blogging in October 2008 at the suggestion of my friend, fellow Ranger, and cybermentor Karen of FabGrandma. I’ve been a writer and photographer forever. Starting out with the Brownie box, then polaroid, the instamatic, and P&Ss. Writing in diaries, journals and college newsletters. I want to continue learning about photography and writing, and the world. I have a dream.
Please look over the new site, pick it apart. Let me know what you like, don’t like, and feel free to suggest changes. I’ve been working on this for over a month and I’m not a website designer. I actually tried to keep the appearance similar to my old blog for some consistency, and besides I like it.
Big Thanks!
To all 337+ of you followers. I couldn’t have gotten here without you.
I have a dream. I plan to continue traveling and sharing my adventures. Someday soon I’ll even get paid for it. (Donations gladly accepted:)
In the mean time, I return to the North Rim at Grand Canyon National Park the end of April for trainings. But don’t plan to visit until the gate opens May 15th. See ya’ there, or here.
So what do you think? Be honest now. 
Happy Birthday!!! Congratulations on your 1000th post. I like your new site and the pictures on this post are well chosen. My only difficulty was finding the comments link. The words are small and I couldn’t find them easily the first 2 times I looked.
Thanks Ruth. I don’t like that small reply button either. Will try to fix that.
I love your new site!!
Happy Birthday and congratulations all round. I am just sad there is no Google follower. I don’t do facebook or twitter or the names you do which are unknown to me.
Whatever, I will be back. All the very best Diane
It is really unfortunate that Friend Connect is no longer available. Hope you’ll subscribe by email.

Pretty darn special, Gaelyn. I’ve been following your travels for some time now. Your blog is a big reason why my husband and I decided to spend spring break in the desert this year. Next week!

Congratulations to your new blog. I love it, and I got side tracked by reading the links! I do not see a follow button, or an RSS.
Congrats on your birthday and posts!!! That’s a major accomplishment. I’m really excited to follow your North Rim adventures. We’re very similiar in our pursuits of nature and photography. I’m glad I found your blog only a short time ago and look forward to the posts in the weeks, months, and years to come:) Happy Birthday!!!
