Time for another year end review. Believe it or not Saturday marked my 11th anniversary here on the interwebs. Hard to fathom that I haven't run out of things to post. The past year has been busy. Not as much travel as I would like but I hopefully can make up for that this coming year. Plans are in the works for something new this fall and something else new next spring. I also foresee another trip to the Sunshine State before the end of summer. But as always more baseball, more firehouses, more of whatever I can escape to. As for the blogs: In the past year I posted 331 times and I had 28,682 pageviews (208,962 all time - 11 years), that's more than 5000 more views than last year. So cross your fingers and wish me well, look out Year 12 here we come.

OK, here we go. It's been nine years now and we're just getting number 10 started. Last year was a blast. Good times, sad times and everything in between. Lots of flowers, lots of birds, lots of firehouses, a day in the Capital, a weekend in Shenandoah, 10 days in my spiritual home, Colorado, a morning with the eagles and New Years in Chincoteague. Oh, and some hiking with the boys. This year promises more. A new destination is in my future, it may prove to become a new frontier to discover. The backyard promises more flowers, the boys promise more hiking and I'm sure there are more of our fine feathered friends waiting somewhere for me. Thank you all for those few seconds I take every day. Year 10... starts now... hold on tight... (by the numbers, 9 years, 156,933 blogviews (23,454 this past year) 2.962 posts (338 in year 9) And World of Pigeons is now my Number 1 post!)
