About Me
I've been driving a WordPress since... long before anybody paid me to drive one.
I just like how it feels.
I started using WordPress when it was only about a year old. At that time WordPress didn’t even use plugins. I had my first blog site back then.
It wasn’t very long before I figured out I had a cool toy which I didn’t understand well enough to use. My blog site looked terrible.
After backgrounds in the printing industry, live performance and the telecom industry, these all seemed together to point towards one thing. I knew my blog site looked terrible.
So I started learning and doing. Gaming clan websites, repairs, I even fell in with some first responder support groups. (Sshh, can’t talk about that.) Suddenly I didn’t have time for my blog site anymore.
One night a video game pal dropped a VPS (Virtual Private Server) in my lap with a crude website for hosting. We were hosting and I now needed to learn servers. Goodbye blog site, hello full stack.
I have recently relocated from the Seattle area back to the Memphis area. And this is my new blog site, so to speak.

57 Free To Use Image Sites
This is meant to be a resource of course, both for me and for seekers of those not so elusive images which are free to use. The idea came as I was searching for free images for a client to use.
