    I would like to ‘like’ many of your posts as they show up on my blogsite and bring more people to see your quite wonderful photographs. Is it possible to set that up?

    1. Hi Tim, because I like to keep the look of the blog simple and clean I don’t have the like button with each post. But if you are a wordpress user you should see a like button at the top of the page on the left hand side of the wordpress toolbar. Although other readers have mentioned that it seems to mysteriously come and go. Who knows why?! Thanks for asking – and visiting.

        I have that ‘like’ button on my WordPress toolbar, but can’t see it on yours. I’ll just have to keep the photos to myself or share. Perhaps it’s becasue we are on different continents!

  6. heavenhappens – Welcome to my life. You can share my grown up world here at http://heavenhappens.me where I blog my thoughts, my life, my travels, my photographs and my poetry. Growing up just after the war was a grim experience. So, now that I have 7 grandchildren, I am reclaiming my childhood by seeing the world anew through their eyes. Every minute I spend with them is magical. So this blog is for them ~ Ben, Rosie, Tiffany, Stanley, Thea, Mateo, and the youngest, Olivia! I hope, when they are all grown up, they will enjoy reading it and finding out about their grandma’s life, and know how very happy they made her. I hope you enjoy reading my posts, leave a comment or a link and I will get back to you. I’m sorry to say that my darling husband died of Covid on Good Friday 2020. Since then the wind has gone out of my sails and I’ve hardly written a thing. I will try to pick up my life and start writing again one day. But for now please enjoy exploring my life🕊️

  10. maryoconnor12 – Along the Connecticut shoreline – I am a writer, poet, community volunteer, pupil of psychology, writing instructor, guest speaker, artist, lover of nature, curious traveler and author of Life Is Full of Sweet Spots, An Exploration of Joy, as well as Dreams of a Wingless Child, a book of award-winning poetry. An advocate of the power of writing as an agent of change, I enjoy speaking to community groups about the joy of making words sing and conduct creative poetry writing workshops for inmates at the State of Connecticut’s York Correctional Institution. As a writer and a painter, I enjoy living along the Connecticut shore, where I infuse everyday observations of the natural world with the sensitivity and insightfulness that tend to define my experience of life. It is these reflections that have helped me realize that one need not look far to find an element of peace, of celebration, of joy, in this inordinate world of which we are all a part.

  13. mjc1520 – I have been a driver for the past 25 years and have two children and two granddaughters that mean the world to me. Blogging is something I've always wanted to do. When I am not blogging and running the road, you will find me sitting in front of my sewing machine, making my granddaughters clothes for their dolls, or something for them. I find sewing to be relaxing!

  16. Katie Boehnlein – Portland, OR – Hello! My name is Katie Boehnlein (pronounced “Bane-line”). I am a teacher and writer who is lucky enough to live in Ashland, Oregon where I am a constant explorer of both the urban and Natural. The writing you'll see on my blog "In the Midst" (www.kboehnlein.wordpress.com) is often inspired by what I experience “in the midst of life” : nature, birds, cities, cycling, travel, the change in seasons, and the occasional public transit musing. Join me in my adventures here!

  23. Jo – Welcome to The Glade, where the second generation of renovations has just begun and the mania about our home, music and other passions fill our days and nights. We’re Charlie and Jo in the music world; Mary Jo and Charles to family; and JoJo and Charlie to each other. We are renovating a midcentury house in a Victorian historic district where we want to live there the rest of our lives. It's a 1946 house located in Maryland. We were married in this house. Thus far (pre-blog) we refinished cabinets, added a window seat (still working on the cushion), rearranged a wall in the guest house due to sink/vanity replacement, planted a vegetable garden, and other quick and not-so-quick fixes. So this latest zeal for construction is the result of my having lived here since 1997 and feeling a need to ready the house for the next chapter and beyond.

  24. LucyJartz – Texas – I love Maine, where the landscape makes dramatic visual changes throughout the year with each season. I teach art with an AA in Art and an AAS in Multimedia, and a BAAS. As a traditional and multimedia artist, I enjoy sharing "Ta-Dah!" moments, mine and others', through VisualFling.wordpress.com. I use art to capture rich memories of beautiful moments in everyday life. I love teaching art because it helps me meet new art friends!

  28. Dr. Denny Wilkins – Dr. Denny Wilkins professes journalism at a small, private university in the Northeast. He has climbed, hiked, kayaked, photographed, skied, and otherwise meandered aimlessly throughout the American West for decades. He has degrees in geology, environmental studies, and communication — and has tried to make use of them as a co-founder of the progressive cultural blog ScholarsandRogues.com. He’s broadly interested in how the world works and why it works that way. He hates writing, although he does like having written well.
