got all my ducks in a row

So here we are; eight ducks.  One for each year.  Sort of.  It all gets a bit hazy as I look back.

I posted my first blip nine and a half years ago.  Anniemay kindly acted as my subject.  After while, I started to miss the odd one or two.  Can’t remember why.  Then a few more breaks.  Now there’s 18 months missing.  So it goes.

Blip is a very special place.  But you already know that.  I appreciate it even more so, given how scary and crazy the world is right now.  It’s a relief to know there are still good people out there. I’ve met some of you in person, others through this screen.  

Looking back at my stats I’m surprised - and a bit embarrased - to discover that I’ve used nine different cameras since I began.  Crazy.  Although I admit to having almost as many bikes in that time.  Fewer guitars though.

I’m also suprised to discover that today’s entry is taken with the same lens that I used for my very first blip.  That was not deliberate, it just happened.  Sometimes it’s fun to play with an old friend.

Thank you Blip.
