In the Mail Bag

Here at Bart Boehlert's Beautiful Things we recently received an email from Christine in Toronto who wrote, in part:
"So, I found your blog yesterday when I googled Robert Isabell (I wanted to do a bit of reading on him, and your blog came up with the nice tribute post you wrote). But then, I scrolled down, and down, and down, and made some phone calls, and then came back to your blog and long story short, I read your entire blog yesterday!!! I know, crazy right? I’m sure you have many loyal readers, but you are now one of my favourite blogs."

Now that's what I call a good blog reader – she read the whole thing, 200 posts and counting! Thanks Christine, that made my day.

A big thanks to all my blog readers, who are continually growing in number. July 10th was the first year anniversary of when I started with my first blog post. It really has been a lot of fun for me. It's offered a great creative outlet, and I've met wonderfully talented people and made good friends in the blogosphere. Something about it clicked with me, and I find myself blogging through meals or late at night. I like taking pictures and I like telling stories, so it's a good form for me. I've received positive feedback, and I'm happy to know that readers are enjoying it. So thank you all for visiting, and I mean it!
