So, it appears that I have to start a blog to follow another blog.  And yet the fine folks at Google seem not to deemed it important to provide info on how to do this.  I had been following a friends blog of his and his wife's travels.  Then a I bought a new computer and the link that appeared in the old tool bar disappeared. Now, a year later, I am trying to get that easy connection back.

Thanks, Google for making something that should be easy such a PIA.  Hopefully, I'll get it figured out one day.  And not the day before I die!
