Well, I'm about 11 hours away from our departing flight from Fresno, CA to Orlando, FL for our 4 night Disney World / 3 night Disney Cruise trip.

Joining me on this trip is my lovely wife, and a majority of her family.

Alright, I finally got this thing off the ground. Yes, I realize there are many, many, many out of the box blogs I could install, but for me, the fun is in the programming. PHP to be exact. I love it when a plan comes together and things just work. So I decided to create my own blog.

I've built this blog on a typical LAMP stack, (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) using the CodeIgniter PHP platform. For anyone looking to begin developing websites, (and has a basic understanding of PHP) I highly recommend CodeIgniter. I'll have plenty of posts about CodeIgniter here and will hopefully become a resource for those interested in CI.

Stay tuned for more...
