My wife is likely to tell you that I am a bit resistant to change. I accept that about myself, although I am happy to report that over the years I’ve discovered my more “adaptable” side.

As we prepare to move — eventually — from where we have lived for more than two decades, I am facing a certain quandary.

What am I going to call this blog?

I named it “High Plains Blogger” when I started it many years ago because I intended to identify the part of the world where my wife and I reside. It’s the High Plains of Texas. Amarillo sits at a fairly high elevation, just a shade less than 3,700 feet above sea level. I mention that to visitors and, why, they’re simply astounded, I tell ya!

Our move isn’t exactly imminent. We still have things to do around the house to get it ready to sell. I do get this question on occasion: Are you going to keep writing your blog? The answer categorically, unequivocally, enthusiastically is not just “yes,” but “hell yes!”

My resistance to change, though, is making me wonder whether I should change the name of this blog. I like the title “High Plains Blogger.” Given that I am a Clint Eastwood fan, I liken it to his film “High Plains Drifter.”

While the blog’s brand isn’t a universal one — despite my desire to reach billions of people with each post — High Plains Blogger has developed a bit of a following over the years. It’s still small, but it’s growing.

This quandary presents my first semi-serious challenge as we enter full-time retirement mode.

Oh, and while I’m at it, I’ll refer you to the blog.

It goes back some years.

I’m not actually soliciting name-change ideas. I will consider any suggestions. My gut tells me at this moment that I’d like to leave the blog title alone.

I just don’t like change.
