And you just might read something that yours truly has written while you're exploring the site.

In each of the magazines, there are four categories. Read about cycling, hiking or travel in Country Recreation.

  7. Hi Mary....I'm getting ready to email you in a bit, but I wanted to leave you a comment first.

    To let you know that your blog has been added to the bloggers over 50 blog roll. Welcome. [you may have to refresh your browser to see that it is there actually. LOL]

    Now to tell you the truth, at one time in my life I was totally addicted to crossword puzzles. Any puzzle actually. I'd pick the little magazines up each month and work on them diligently. For some reason, I quit doing it. But I just may mosey on over to the Haystack link real soon.

    Happy day to you. I bet you're enjoying the sunshine. Or did the clouds and rain blow in afterall.

    See you in your email inbox in a bit.

  8. Hi Mary, Karen has posted.

    Did you find the card in the front of the journal that was for you. Sorry it isn't fancier but I am on the lookout for them now that I know you like them.
