Wow

I have been getting comments that I am a Blog of Note. I had no idea what that meant but I googled it and low and behold I am a Blog of Note. At least for today - You can read about the historie (that is the way they spell it) here. . . Thanks Blogger. I appreciate it.

Addendum:  I checked my blog count and I have had over 3,000 hits today. I am truly amazed.  I still appreciate the 70+ people who have been stopping by regularly.  Thanks to everyone.

    I have a Panasonic Lumix 18X Optical Scan. Bob (Who does Bob's Photos) has a much more incredible one. But I like mine. And it did not cost as much as his. j
