birthday!

It has been exactly one year since my first post ever.

It had been yet another snowy day in a snowy Maine winter.

I'd been lurking around several wonderful blogs 

for several weeks,

and that day I decided to experiment by 

seeing if I could set up one of my own.

The rest is history.

I just want to say how much I've enjoyed my first year in Blog-land.

You, dear readers, have made all the difference.

Your visits, your comments,

your support and encouragement

have made the joy come so easily.

Getting to know you, learning from your wonderful blogs,

being inspired by your words and photographs

not only got me through that snowy winter,

but changed my life and how I think about things.

Thank you all...so much!
