What We Put Into It

At our Editorial Committee on Sunday, Vikki and I decided to put a little more of ourselves into the paper -- namely, getting specific on what goes into producing Boyle McCauley News. We won't be going into huge details, but rather presenting graphs and statistics demonstrating how many proofs go back and forth, how many hours spent online, and in my case, the distance I travel around the neighbourhood and surrounding areas.

Now that cycling season is winding down, I am taking to heading on my photo walks. However, this time, I am going to be walking around wearing a pedometer. We will see just how much distance I cover. It's far too late in the season to start calculating my cycling distances, but I am hoping to acquire an odometer/speedometer next spring.

I hope to also create some Boyle Street and McCauley walking plans, with routes, maps, and distances. It is my way of encouraging people in the area to be physically active and healthy.
