Looking to recover old posts

Some of you may recognize me from the old Memphis Weather News blog (weather.blogspot.com). Does anyone know where I could find my old posts cached somewhere? I would like to add them to this blog (and, by the way, Google does not have them).

Hi everyone!

This blog will cover many weather-related things pertaining to the Memphis area. But first, let me introduce myself.

My name is Jake Hughes, and I live near Memphis. I plan to become a meteorologist in the National Weather Service someday. I have always been interested in weather, particularly severe weather. My interest in weather, I think, began because when I was a toddler, my grandfather would always watch the Weather Channel. I also remember specifically me and him watching coverage of Hurricane Danny.

I plan on receiving my Bachelors' Degree in meteorology then going on to get my Masters' Degree.

I currently own and maintain a weather station located in Germantown, TN. Data is uploaded to the Internet every minute. You can find my data at Weather Underground, CWOP, and AWEKAS.

Anyway, let me get on to my first real post.

Hi everyone! I am considering becoming a licensed ham radio operator. I think I will take the exam sometime in the middle of April, so any advice about starting out on ham radio (with a tight budget) would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
