I downloaded the awesome WordPress app for my Android to try blogging with my phone.  Turns out it’s easy breezy. So I’m Paying It Forward this week to my good friend alisonwonderland for her idea of quick posts about her recent vacation that I’m borrowing for my phone posts about our current vacation. Thanks Ali!
