Wahoo! 500!

Another milestone reached today. My 500th Blip! It’s been five-hundred days in a row of finding unique things to photograph and write about. I was trying to think of another way to use my photo to show that it was my 500th Blip. I had reached the spotlight with my 365th Blip and wanted to try to get there again. Then my mom gave me an idea. I enlisted the help of my parent’s pet Airedale, Moose, to help me mark the occasion.
Moose is a sweet, gentle and playful Airedale and probably one of the largest I have ever seen. He let me tie the sign around his neck with a big blue ribbon and he sat very nicely for my photograph. Afterwards my mom gave him a big treat for being so good. While I sat and had some coffee in the kitchen at my mom’s house, Moose stayed close by under the table hoping for some scone crumbs to fall to the floor. I guess his big treat wasn’t big enough.
Time goes by no matter what. When it comes to blipping, why not do it! Why not mark the day with a memory. I have gained far more than I have given doing Blip. I enjoy reading everyone’s journals and seeing your wonderful photographs. I don’t always get to comment on each and every one I see but I get a lot of pleasure out of seeing different people, places and things from all over the world. I love the discipline it gives me to stick with something and take the time out of each day for myself to reflect on the day.
