I happened onto your blog at Christmas time when I was looking for beautiful Nativity pictures.<br /><br />I am almost tempted to do geneology. I have such an infuriating family. Just plain mean people. So I thought "to Hell with them all!" Maybe, after reading about your John Bagley, I might re-consider. Maybe there are a few worthwhile characters to discover.<br /><br />Love your tutorials, art work, and humor!

So I figure it is time to comment and let you know this: I love your blog! I love the mental connections that I have felt when I read your entries. When I saw that you had written an entry about how to leave a comment, I thought "Duh!" I just gave my friend an email tutorial on how to do this--I never thought about making it a blog entry. And your entry is perfect! Thank you--I'll be pointing more of my friends your way. I liked your entry on how to write a book (I'm a writer), how to research ancestors (I inherited my sister's genealogy records and I'm not sure what to do with them), and all your other entries too. Thank you for writing and sharing with us!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05070492698283903745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-13657774353272175002010-01-28T22:42:48.071-07:002010-01-28T22:42:48.071-07:00I'm on the east side of Washington state.

It makes me so happy to know you love comments just as much as I do. It makes me so excited to get them--like little bitty bits of mail. I just love them. Thanks for posting. Great as always.<br /><br />I am guilty of not commenting as much as I'd like--often I read your posts in my reader--but I try to make it over here as often as I can. You know I said before that I read FAITHFULLY every single day you post. :)Heather Scott Partingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14010553024593582699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-20934233679747429862010-01-27T20:49:48.972-07:002010-01-27T20:49:48.972-07:00I'm in the Salt Lake Valley.

I don't know which of us visited the other first but I do know that 99.9% of the time I do make sure that I leave a comment -- some short; sometimes long. Comments are the icing on the cake in blogging. I get depressed when I don't get comments and I think others do, too. Comments validate us and let us know we aren't just talking to ourselves.Kay Dennisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02646717192332313215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-2247844728256457702010-01-27T13:22:46.285-07:002010-01-27T13:22:46.285-07:00I read regularly, but never comment.

I was hesitant to move here, especially since the housing prices were as low as they were ('See something MUST be wrong with that place, the houses are way to cheap!')<br /><br />Since then I have begged my husband to not move again.

A well kept secret in the U.S. of A.<br /><br />We have 4 distinct seasons, green summers, and white winters. We also have fireflies (which I consider to be the coolest bugs ever created).<br /><br />The biggest plus about where I live is how safe it is. There are kids everywhere!
