Tomorrow, August 28, marks the 8th anniversary of starting this blog. As with many other jobs or responsibilities, it hardly seems that it could be either that long ago, or only that long ago!
As usual on these anniversaries, I’m assessing “progress,” trying to see what could or should change to improve the blog. I recently found a bunch of photographs that got de-linked in the recent switch to a new server, so that’s an improvement. The rest is all behind the scenes stuff, barely noticeable to the general reader, and boring to relate here, but some of the changes I’m contemplating will hopefully make it easier for me to post. That ought to help ensure we make it to 9th anniversary and beyond.
So, no words of wisdom, no pithy observations on the passing of time. I’m just grateful to you, the reader, for coming here every few days to see what we’re up to. Here’s to more anniversaries to come!
Congratulations on sharing 8 years with us all. As you know, Mary and I live vicariously through your posts and continue to hold you folks as “good friends” after our two visits to the homestead. Keep up the good work that you all do and help us all enjoy the homestead lifestyle.
We would love to know more about your neighbors out on Mud Bay and a bit about how they too wound up there. We love to learn about achieving “the simple lifestyle” and how folks pull it off !!!
Congrats again,
John and Mary
Thanks, John and Mary!
As a rule, I try not to blog about our neighbors, as not everyone appreciates their business broadcast on the Internet. There are many interesting stories, though. You must visit us again, and we’ll take you around to learn them first hand!
