5/15/08 A Day to REST!

It was another chilly day here in the mountains. It really didn't make much difference to us as we opted to stay in and rest after all the activity yesterday.

I did take the time to look at the stats for this last week. I was pleasantly surprised.

We had 351 visitors to the blog and they viewed 518 pages. The busiest day of the week was Friday the 9th with 104 visitors and the slowest was Saturday, the 10th with only 57.

We had visitors to the blog every hour of the day with the exception of 2 and 3 a.m..

Visitors came from all over the world. Countries represented were: USA, Canada, Barbados, Denmark, Turkey, Australia, Germany, Pakistan, Thailand, Belgium, United Kingdom and Singapore.

Visitors called 31 different states home.

The top four states for pages viewed were: Virginia, California, New York and New Jersey.

The four cities for pages viewed were: New York City, NY, Huntington Beach, CA, Reston, VA and Livingston, NJ.

Keywords in search engines that brought up this blog: Once again, How To Kill a Groundhog - Rebecca Dawn - Sandia Peak Tram - Crosseyed Cricket Canoe, Sunshine Skyway Fishing Pier and my favorite.....

@ 12 mph how long does it take to travel 2.7 miles

I googled this myself and sure enough # 9 on the list was this blog.

So visitors from VA, CA, NY and NJ....get signed in on the buddy map! The rest of you who haven't put yourselves on our map....what's taking you so long?

We did manage to fill in our states map today.

Its really getting filled in.

We have decided to move on tomorrow. Yes, we are paid through until Sunday but with the distance we have to travel to Zion and back it just makes more sense to move closer. Yes, this Queen of Cheap hates to just throw away the $24.00 we'll lose by moving but when you figure in the cost of fuel.... Besides, the place we're going to has WIFI!

This was pretty much it for today.

I know what you mean about having a "day of rest". I thought it was just for grandparents!
Beautiful pictures. I think I'm caught up with your travels now! Glad to see your pictures of Bryce, we didn't get there. Those pictures of going through the mountain in Utah sure looked familiar though!!!! Neat lines in the mountain rocks! Keep up the great work!
