Happy 6th Blogoversary To Me!

Today is my 6th Blogoversary! Hip Hip Hooray!

I want to thank everyone for visiting my site, recommending it to others, tweeting, re-tweeting, liking and making comments.  I have met a lot of good people along the way and hope to be around for another 6 years or more of blogging.

It all started when I found out, talking to my next door neighbor, that she had a blog and started reading hers. So one day I thought it would be cool to have my very own.  Since I enjoy the sport of deer hunting, I decided to use that as my platform to blog about.  Below is my very first post -

This is my first time to do this and just feeling my way through it all....my neighbor next door has a blog here and I enjoy reading her stuff....so....I thought I would start me one. I like to deer hunt so I thought I would blog my hunting adventures....
As time would have it...I lost interest after 4 posts.  I was fortunate to have a nice guy to come by my site, by way of a forum, who took the time to sign my guestbook at my former website, A Dixie Lady Deer Hunter, now a blog.  (I always sent a message of thanks to anyone who signed it).  I found out that he was also a Mississippian and later on through his emails/calls he encouraged me to continue to write about my hunting experiences.  After 6 years we are still friends and my mentor.  His name is Rex Howell,  a.k.a., Editor, over at Deer Camp Blog. If it was not for him, I don't think I would be here today celebrating my 6th Blogoversary!  I will be forever grateful for your support and friendship Rex!
