Hello, my friends. I'm happy to say that today we passed the milestone of 147,000 visits to this blog, which has been in existence since early October, 2016. These visits (page-views) have come from more than 100 countries located all over the world.
In the beginning, the blog was just poetry. but soon the need for illustrations caused an expansion into photography, another of my interests. Soon prose articles, and sometimes long series of them, were also featured. All of the prose was, and is, my own writing.
But another milestone is just around the corner. The photograph at the end of this blog entry was taken yesterday, exactly one month shy of my eightieth birthday. I am fascinated by turning eighty, something I've never experienced before, at least in this life, and am trying to document it.
Is age really just a number? I would have to say that it is not. My doctor tells me that very few men my age can get an erection at all. I can, but it's nothing to shout about. I can do physical work for an hour, but that's about it. I can, on the other hand, do mental work all day and into the night. That's pretty much how I spend my days, and it's what I share with you, my readers. I intend to keep doing it as long as I can.
So thank you, once again, for your continued interest, your inferred enthusiasm, and your loyalty. Gracias, todah, wadó.
