I’ve known for a while that one could blog through Google Docs; but, I never made a move to check it out. Tonight, I thought I would give it a whirl. 

Unfortunately, you do not get to see the results until after you’ve gone through all the trouble of writing something and then posting it.
What I am most curious about is whether changing the original document automatically changes the blog post too. That would be handy.

There was a Fundraiser held for Hidalgo County Judge JD Salinas at Copper Canyon in McAllen today. The event was from 6 to 9 pm. The judge counted some of his work during his term in office, which includes the county drug discount card and repairs to the levee system. Judge Salinas mentions that he would like to continue his work. Some of the big projects include laying the groundwork for the I-69 corridor and the construction of a border loop.

I recorded some of his speech on my phone, which doesn’t have the greatest quality. I also had to break it up into pieces.

I had the pleasure of accompanying some of my Toastmasters friends to Corpus Christi on Saturday to a leadership training event. I certainly had a great time and learned more about the organization.

I had the pleasure of attending the Food Bank RGV’s Summer Soiree at the Ramirez Family Jaguar dealership in McAllen. Along with a bunch of sponsors, the Food Bank RGV was able to put this event together through Facebook communication.
 
I was able to get a video interview with Terri Drefke, the Ececutive Director, but it did not save properly on my phone. I’ll see if we can get a statement from her later.
 
It was a great experience. There were good people. It was definitely the place to be on Thursday night.

I spent a few hours today setting up websites for a couple of clubs of which I am a member. They both use Google Sites to make things simple for others to administer.

One group is Hub City Toastmasters. You can visit that site at http://hctoast.rgvleaders.com.

The other group is Social Media Club RGV. You can visit that site at http://smcrgv.rgvleaders.com
