In celebration of my 1,000th blog post!

Dear Friends,

All of a sudden I realized that this post would be my 1,000th blog post! It is such a milestone for me!

I can't begin to mention all of the events and adventures that we have traveled on together.

Through all the joy and hardships over the past few years I have shared it with you through my writings, poems, and photographs!

I thank you deeply for enriching my life! So cheers to life and another 1,000 blog posts!

This short video was taken in Avon, North Carolina on the Outer Banks. Philip and I stopped at an art fair on our way home from the orthopedist. When I saw the hula hoops I immediately knew I wanted that for this post. My world does indeed go in circles!

Whereas I did not buy the hula hoop, the folks at spinfinite Designs were delighted to loan me one for my short video!  Enjoy and thank you again!




How can I end this post without a poem from Emily Dickinson?


That it will never come again
Is what makes life so sweet
Believing what we don't believe
Does not exhilarate.

That if it be, it be at best
An ablative estate--
This instigates an appetite
Precisely opposite

Emily Dickinson
1830-1886
