Let's start with the nice picture. On Tuesday, David and I decided to get out a bit, since I wasn't very busy, so we took a short drive up the Arava to Kibbutz Yotvata. On the way, there were a few clouds in the western sky, and, some of the time, the sun went behind them. This was too good a photo opportunity for me. Here's one of the pictures that I took:
Now for the news -- I've started 2 new blogs during this week. You may ask why I'm doing this. The reason is that I feel that this blog has become a bit unfocused, and I thought it might be interesting to have blogs focused on particular topics. In addition, I'm planning to do a LOT more writing, so this will become more important.
The first blog that I started is entitled "Arlan's Day -- and online journal". If you'd really like to follow my daily life, including a lot of trivial things, of course, this is where you'll be able to do it. I hope to post there nearly every day. Here's the link to view it.
The second blog I just started this afternoon. It's entitled "Israel and its neighbors -- a political review of the week". As you might guess from the title, I will only be writing weekly in it. My plan is to collect links to various articles during the week and then tie them together with my comments on what they contain and why I think they're worth reading. I really hope that a lot of you will read at least some of the articles, because I KNOW that you'll get a better idea of the real issues facing Israel! Here's the link to this blog.
I am NOT abandoning THIS blog, however! This is where I plan to post most of the pictures and the stories about various places I go. In other words, it will become mostly (though not TOTALLY!) a sort of travelog about our adventures here.
