Great stats, its good to live in Idaho right now! Welcome to the Rain Jeff.
Welcome, Jeff!
Excellent post!!
I am relatively new to AR, and I love it! Great to see you are already going, plan and post your articles. Set a goal for number of comments to make on other's posts (this will challenge you to join groups, to make connections to other members, to get ideas to improve your business, to get ideas to improve your blog, to improve your life, etc.) Then delve into Localism (build your posts to enhance your image as the local expert), and continue to update your profile as you gather ideas from others.
Have Fun!!
