Saturday Morning Post: Happy Blogiversary 18 Years


About 3600 posts

This adventure started 18 years ago today.  I had filled in as a guest blogger for Stephen, aka Uncle Bert, while he was away in France that summer.  One of my first posts for Bert was about a beauty contest I had been to see, at the state fair, and the winner was the fine young heifer above.  

My blogging was sporadic and inconsistent until 2015.  I decided I wanted to improve my writing (yes, I know this is the improved version), and I made a personal commitment to post everyday.  I have missed one day since the beginning of 2015.  

I do enjoy this.  I love sharing photographs, this gives me a place to ramble and rant.  I love interacting with you all.  Your comments are often the highlight of my day.  I try to respond to them.  We have made some incredible blog friends, and there are more bloggers we intent to meet when we can.  (Sharon, Sean, Mistress, Sophie).  

I intend to keep doing this, as long as I can.
