Forty is the New Twenty (*Twice)!

Grand apologies for not keeping up with The Pokémon Diaries.  Being a small-time Pokémon Trainer on a rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with big-time responsibilities forces free-writing down to the bottom of my Things To-Do to Be the Very Best list.  So here is a quick update of what happened with my PoGO journey:  I achieved Level 40 on November 27^th at about 3:30 am. 

The grind continues as I plow steadily to get through what is apparently and affectionately designated by Hard-core PoGO Trainers as the “Level 40 Scrub Zone,” which is the range of 20 million to 99,999,999 XP.  Cheers to new reasons for continuing the enthusiasm towards Pokémon GO and let us keep encouraging each other in achieving newfound challenges!
