Mackenzie’s appointment was quick and all good news so we managed to get away for lunch.

My mother-in-law needed a little assistance, getting her electric snowblower going. Mission accomplished, now back to work.

This evening I created the 1926 McFate Travel Journal repo from the grinnell-college-CB-base template repo. Now I need a script that will break the primary .md document into smaller chunks, and update them in Azure Blob storage.

This is really just another test of my system as we’re waiting on friends to go walking around the lake that isn’t anymore.

Creating this new post from my phone this morning while I visit the farm.

This test should return an accurate timestamp PLUS a valid “location” and “coordinates” from Drafts.

Thinking ahead, the “Publish Micropost to My Blog” script needs a couple more things:

• The “title:” field should automatically populate from the Draft title (first line) and it should be in TitleCase.
• Coordinates in Toledo or Tama (or other frequent stops) should get location tags without having to call the PositionStack API.
