Getting some traction on taking the church blog and turning it into the main website for St Nick’s. It’s quite difficult to migrate a domain from Yahoo.com to GoDaddy.com as it is, but the former web admin (who’s moving on to be ordained as a deacon soon) struggled with the Yahoo side.

I can only hope that the Utah electorate is smart enough to figure this out but… What am I thinking?
