Shout out to @higherkey for getting this wordpress conversion done. I spot checked a few of the MD files and it looks good. We'll want to do a full pass through the blogs with @chimchim237 once we get it deployed to staging to make any needed tweaks. Currently marked PR as on hold while @helmturner finishes up the MD parser refactor as the currently published version will break staging if I add the new markdown files. Once we've got Alec's new plugin deployed we'll merge these in as test material.

One thing, the housekeeping branch that I published has a duplicate folder with all the files again. Should I remove all the duplicate stuff?

Also, we should specifically take a look at the images. The script attempted to grab images but I don't know how well it worked.

This will need someone to go through and fix frontmatter to conform to the schema in #113 and then should be good to merge.

went through blogs and commented out or removed broken image links to allow it to build. Blog needs editorial review and then repair of any broken images deemed necessary.
