web site developing when you are over seventy

When my piano teacher suggested I put my folk song arrangements on a web site, I really wondered whether I could do this.  Since I was born in 1941, I did not grow up with computers.  However, I had used computers in my career so I thought I would give it a try.  I found the Weebly site and signed up. 

This was the start of a long learning process.  I eventually figured out that you don't need to have everything on the home page. The concept of hidden pages seems obvious once you realize it but it took me too long to grasp the idea.  Some days were very frustrating.  The worst one was when, somehow or other, I destroyed my home page not once, but three times.

I really thought no one would find my web site but I was wrong.  I followed my "hits" with astonishment as they increased, not quickly, but steadily.

While this has sometimes been frustrating, it has also been both interesting and fun.

Some more songs added in October.  October's task is to learn chords so that I can play them automatically without thinking.  More training for the mature brain.

This is a picture I took at the Chaco Culture National Monument, a place of fascination and haunting beauty.

I have now added the links for my own compositions.  This web site is still very much a work in progress so please check it again, when you get a few minutes.

Progress is very slow on adding pages and links.  Summer time is not the best time to work.  Too many distractions: nice weather, places to go, gardening.

Learning how to set up a web site has not been easy for someone not brought up on computers.  So anyone looking at my web site might have found it frustrating.  I did, too.  However, choosing the pictures to go with the songs was fun.  There are so many lovely ones on the web.
