Why I Come Here—Monday, March 20, 2017

Posted on March 20, 2017 by Dayphoto

Yesterday I got a message from WordPress:

Happy Anniversary with WordPress.com!

You registered on WordPress.com 10 years ago.

Thanks for flying with us. Keep up the good blogging.

Ten years! Goodness times has flown. Terry and my hair have turned color, in that time, his is white and mine gray….we are both retired from downtown jobs

Our grandchildren have grown from tiny infants into much bigger kids.

Still the drifting clouds and the breezes continue to move over the land we call home.

And we still continue to farm. Working the soil, building fences, taking care of the this piece of property that calls to Terry and I.

And for me, I love blogging.

I’ve met so many wonderful friends here, people who have become more than a push of the like button…

For you — each one of you…sit close to me for a spell and we get to know each other.

Thank you for my wonderful ten years of blogging.

Love,

Linda
