I decided to document my journey with Blender.
According to my file history I downloaded Blender 2.64 on 11/18/2012.
2.65 on 12/22/2012
2.67 on 6/27/13
I probably upgraded sequentially through the next few.
My blogspot tells me that
On April 5, my band fired me. Big mistake. Now I have to recreate myself
as a musician and make more money. What were they thinking? Thanks to
you I will have to make more money than I did before.
Opened my blogspot.

The Long Walk....
A treatment of Eddie Hill's story.

Beginning the Roman amphitheater project
This goes on for a while..
By Feb 18 I have something halfway complete.
"I started working on 16 Cook St Liverpool last week. I had no good 2d
elevation and only a few decent online photos of it, and a street level
view of it from google."

I started Shingy Street back on...I'm not really sure. The earliest
image is from Dec 24, 2013. The Brownstone is dated to Jan 18. So
sometimes in January it developed. Funny, it seems like a longer time
ago than that.
Sooo. The Brownstone is not done to scale. Shingy Street's buildings are not done to scale.
So today, after several days of gigging, I tried to conquer one basic thing:
How to make light emitters invisible in Blender's cycles render.
(I've been using this ever since)
Obviously had been working on the Brooklyn Bridge for a while now....
By March 27
working on railroads...
I figured getting the rolling stock accurately placed would be enough for one day.
Basic template for rail. Not exact but close.
American Standard Gauge (4'-8.5') mainline railroad track and ballast assembly.
I realized today I made a mistake on the wheels of the CS passenger.
When I started a new file, using the wheels and basic lines as a
template, I saw the distance between the inner "rails" to be NOT 4'
8.5".

Had a massive hard drive failure Feb 28. Had many warnings.
Bought a new hard drive March 1 and took the old one out.
March 2 took it to Tiger Direct for OS and drivers.
March 3 got it back.
Bought BlacX hard drive reader.....
Works great. Couple of days later salvaged the hard drive from Emachines. Audio until Feb 2 2013.
The virus told the hard drive all your folders are empty.
