Since I started WaltInPA.com as a New Year’s Resolution back in 2009, this blog has seen a few changes. In the early days it was just a place for me to place random thoughts and stories. After that, topics shifted to books and reviews, eventually turning to guns and the shooting sports.
While I’ve always enjoyed blogging, I’ve come to the painful realization that married life with a child leads to a life full of twists and turns. I can’t dedicate my time to a single subject anymore and as a result, my little space on the web has become stagnant.
I would absolutely love to be shooting USPSA, IDPA, and Archery every weekend but the truth is, I can’t. Not only is it expensive, there just aren’t enough hours in the day. Between spending time with my family and everything that goes along with it, I just can’t manage to sneak away at a moments notice to spend five hours at the range and then come home, jump on my computer, and post about it.
Going forward I’m going to enjoy doing a little bit of everything and this blog is going to follow suit. I’ll still have USPSA Match Video and talk about Archery but you’ll also be seeing a lot of random topics about everyday life.
Spending time with my family and participating in a little bit of all my various hobbies will make me happy. Hopefully, a happy me will lead to more writing because it is also a hobby that I enjoy.
