Today, November 7, 2007, is the first anniversary of my blog here at BLOGGER. I have come a long way in one year. I started blogging because my next door neighbor Tricia had a blog called "Tricia Dishes." I really enjoyed reading hers, so I decided to start me one. I already had a MySpace site devoted to hunting, but I wanted to do more. That's when Marian's Hunting Stories, etc., etc., etc. was born. As you can see from the archives I did not blog from December 2006 to the end of January 2007. I lost interest in my blog that quick. On January 29, 2007, on my website, A Dixie Lady Deer Hunter, a nice guy came by from a forum and signed my guestbook. (When anyone leaves me a message, I always try to write them back and thank them). This person was also a Mississippian and through his e-mails and calls, he encouraged me to write more about my hunting experiences, etc. Since then, he has become my mentor and a very good friend to both my husband and I. I can truly say that he is a fine southern gentleman and you could not meet a nicer person. You all know him by the name of Rex/Editor over at Deer Camp Blog. If it wasn't for him, I would not be here today writing my first anniversary message to you. My sincere thanks to you Rex! :)Wednesday, November 07, 2007

Congratulations Marian! Rex does do a fine job of supporting and encouraging his fellow bloggers. Good luck this weekend.
ReplyDeleteThanks Andy for coming by and your good wishes. Yes, he does a fine job of supporting his fellow bloggers and if you ever met him you would understand what I talking about. Hopefully, we will all meet up at the Outdoor Bloggers Summit in St. Louis, MO, and have a wonderful time talking about hunting, fishing, etc., etc.
