DEADWOOD TRADING POST

Deadwood Trading Post

by Karl Logan on 11/23/11

It has been ten days since my last blog.  I have spent the last few weeks working on a new website.  The Deadwood Trading Post is my newest passion.  I started a webpage for the Deadwood Trading Post on Logansboro.com but never found the time to develop my product line.  I finally decided to jump in with both feet and meet the Deadwood artists that I wanted to represent. 

Deadwood is a vary diverse community.  I had the opportunity to discover just how diverse at the annual meeting for the Deadwood Comunuty Center.  I had no idea how involved the Deadwood residents were in this community.  It was inspiring to see such passion.  I may have jumped into the deep end of the pool by volunteering to be the Web Master for the new website, but that is exactly why I went.  I had already designed the Deadwood Trading Post and had it published.  I had completed research about Deadwood and had a page on Logansboro.com already.  This was the next step.

Meeting the artists in Deadwood has been a great joy.  These folks are the nicest people I have met in a long time.  With my management and business background, my circle of influence has been somewhat one sided, and with Congress running this country into the ground, I have spent the last year blogging tirades.  It has been a powerless activity.  I am concerned about the country and where we are headed.  Many Americans are so engrossed with day to day survival that they feel powerless to oppose the system.  I wondered whether opposition is pointless so I turned my attention toward things I can impact. 

This new focus on local community and commerce has been refreshing.  Now I commit my time to the hositpal and the Deadwood Trading Post.  When I am not working at the hospital, I am updating my website and meeting artists and other community members.  It has been a great time for me and I will continue to meet the residents of this community provide an outlet to increase commerce for Deadwood.  I hope you visit the Deadwood Trading Post and find something you like.  Until then, enjoy your local community and your family for they are the only Americans that really care about your well being.  I wish you all the best.
