Photo Tour of Owosso including Corunna Historical Village
I created these pages a long time ago on the Shiawassee Regional Chamber Website. When they reconfigured the site and removed community pages like mine I moved them to my own domain.

My Google Sites Story
K8OMS
is my amateur radio call. I first became licensed in 1958. I became
interested in Google Sites when I created a site for our new amateur
radio digital repeater system. The call of the repeater is W8SHI. The
site is at w8shi.net. I have other sites here and here.
I have been involved with creating and maintaining websites for a long time. I don't consider myself an expert but I keep learning. I had never purchased my own domain name but after creating a Google Site I decided to try it. As I often do I looked to see if there was a help forum for sites and when I found it I started reading the posts. I found all of the information I needed by reading the answers from contributors like Steegle. After getting the domain up and running I kept visiting the forum and noticed people were asking the same questions over and over, like "Why is my new website not in Google Search?". So I started answering questions and then got recommended to be a "Top Contributor". Mostly I just repeat what I have learned from Steegle, BCJ19, Philridout and others, and I often get in over my head and have to ask one of them for help. But it is fun!
