Checking out for a few days

Thanks to you all, The Wild Life has been the most-visited blog on Roanoke.com for the past two weeks.

Sorry, Dan!

Thanks so much for the visits, everyone!

As much as I’d like to keep that momentum going I won’t be able to.

Because of a family emergency I am headed out of town for at least a few days. It wouldn’t be fair of me to have people checking back in here every day when I can’t say for sure when I’ll start posting again.

I’m not sure how many days I’ll be away. I suspect at least a week.

Thank you all so much for your frequent visits to my blog over the past couple of months.

About this blog

Mark Taylor.

While growing up in rural Southern Oregon, Mark Taylor developed a passion for the outdoors while he and his younger brother tagged along with their father on fishing, hunting and camping adventures.

Graduating from Northwestern University in 1988, Taylor spent four years as an officer in the U.S. Navy based in Norfolk before moving into journalism.

After five years writing about the military for a Norfolk-based publishing company, he became the outdoors editor at The Roanoke Times in 1998. He lives in Roanoke with his wife and twin daughters.
