Thanks Angelro for your engaging chatty feed back. I do appreciate the thought you have put into it.
I realised early on that to gain readers one must not be too heavy handed with advice. I like to write in the first person and give of myself as that is what I enjoy. One of the reasons why I read and write is to learn more about people around the world.
I do agree about pictures but it is a time consuming pastime (though enjoyable). I have so much to do in my day that I give myself a certain amount of time for a blog and I run out before I've downloaded as many pictures as I would like.
I try very hard to make my readers see pictures in my words. It certainly keeps me on my toes.
I'll be reading your contributions.
Yes, I am a joy filled person and enjoy each day of my life even though time is passing so quickly.
Sadly Alex passed on and is buried on the farm.
