519


I don't usually pay attention to blog statistics, but I did take a look a while ago and noticed that I was approaching 500 posts. I thought about writing something special to mark the occasion, but then promptly forgot about it, as happens far too often lately.

Earlier this week I was on my way to the nursery and when I turned onto Rt. 519, I had a flicker of remembrance. Somehow I managed to keep the thought in my sieve of a brain until I got home and checked, and to my surprise I saw that post number 500 had whizzed right by and was well past. There are plenty of times that I struggle to link words and photos, but this one was easy. I turned around, headed back to the Rt. 519 sign to take a picture, and you are now reading post number 519. I know there are plenty of bloggers who have been around much longer and written many more posts, but I honestly never imagined I would make it this far and wanted to mark the occasion.

There are also plenty of times that I struggle to find topics to write about and the words to express myself, so I thank you very much for taking the time to read and/or comment. I truly appreciate it!

Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend and I hope you'll join me here on Monday for post number 520.
