I’ve Moved!
November 20, 2008
So I’m sure that most people have noticed that the site has been offline for a few days. There’s a reason for that, which I will get to shortly. But first, let me just say this:
In fact, I am blogging at a new site I have just finished setting up: kennethhynek.net. A full explanation for the reasons behind the move can be found here
.
That said, this is not the end of Time Immortal. My wife Grace has expressed interest in taking over blogging at this domain, and I am working to make sure that she gets set up here as soon as possible.
Also, my profound apologies for the modification to the site face; the move was not as seamless as I would have hoped, and many of the image files for this theme, and in the gallery, were corrupted during the course of their evacuation from my previous web host’s servers. Until such time as I have repaired them, I’ve put a clean-looking template in place of the previous one.
Update: for the purposes of further traffic shaping, new posts from kennethhynek.net will be excerpted below. Full articles can be read at the new blog.
Pic of the Day #492
January 24, 2008
One of the last sites we visited in Greece was the Theatre of Dionysos, which is one of two odeons situated at the bottom of the south face of the Acropolis. It is also the one that has not been restored. The actual site, however, is quite large, and the paths tour you not only past the theatre itself, but through a lot of the parkland surrounding it. There is also a bit of a palisade that overlooks both odeons.
This is a picture taken from the steps leading up to said palisade.

The staircase here leads to a path back down to the Theatre of Dionysos (which will feature in a Pic of the Day presently). There’s not much else to say about it, except that the way it’s all built out of rock looked, visually, quite appealing to me, and I thought it was worth a picture. A bit of editing in Lightroom later and it was even suitable for the web.
