Ten years ago today, I officially began to blog.
I had putzed around with Geocities-type sites before that, keeping a journal and sharing photos online, but that first blog really forged a new direction in my life. I can’t even begin to describe the scope of this exercise in sharing. I tried. I opted to keep it simple.
I love this gig, both here and guest blogging. I appreciate all of the folks who have been part of this grand ride.


Wow, 10 years IS a long time. So glad you share your. BEautiful world. Thank you!
That photograph is all kinds of wonderful. It makes me want to walk right through my screen and commune with nature alongside you.
Congratulations on TEN YEARS! Wow!
If this weren’t the commemorative post for the 10th anniversary of your blogging, I wouldn’t bother you at all, but as it were– I do feel a happy obligation to thank you for sharing tidbits of your life, and doing it so well. I’ve followed you for years on Xanga (as Fairyskisses77), and I just migrated over to Blogger right on with you after a long break. Something about your photos, your crafts, and your small notes about life really give me comfort and peace.
What a great photo to represent blogging – it really is a road leading you to somewhere (hopefully) beautiful. At least that is what I´ve found in my short bloglife.
Congrats!
Goodness! Ten years … that is a good long time for blogging… you were one of the pioneers. It was not that easy to start with. I love going into my archives to see the evolution of my style, writing, photos. Many times in the past couple of years I really thought about abandoning my blogging, but I can’t seem to do it :)
Time flies, right? I’ve enjoyed your blog ever since I found it. Your photos are so beautiful.
Keep on blogging!

Jodi, it’s so odd to see 10 years having gone by. I don’t remember where I ran into you first. I remember a board outside of Xanga for sharing writing and critiquing. I remember a photography contest, and I remember a few of your blogs.
It’s been wonderful getting to experience fragments and pieces of yourself through the sharing.
Peace,
Shane
