Something on your mind? ? ? :-)

If you would like to leave a comment to tell me what you like or if you would like to share an experience you have had, have suggestions for new adventures, or would just like to share what's on your mind, please feel free to do so! I would really, really love to hear any feedback you would care to offer!

When you click on the comments link at the bottom of the post, you will be presented with choices for logins, if you do not already have one of the accounts listed, or you do not choose to login with that account, you can always choose the anonymous option, in which case your name would come up as Anonymous! If you choose to use one of the other log in options, your name would appear as the public name you list for that account. For example, mine would appear as Willow's Quiet Corner, and, of course, your email would not show!

Thanks! And, again, thanks for stopping by! I really hope to hear from you and to see you again soon! Let me know how you think I am doing! :-)

Happy New Year! ! !


Peonies at Butchart Gardens, Victoria, Vancouver Island, Canada

Sorry I have been MIA for so long!  :)  I had several things I had planned on posting about, but . . . well, life happens!  I may still try to get some of those posts done, even though some of the events were wayyyyy back in August!

Anyway, this post is to say . . . I am still here!  And to thank every one of you who has hung in there with me this past year!  I truly appreciate all your support and just really, really love reading all your sweet comments . . . otherwise, it is just a bit boring talking to oneself!  ;)        . . . so . . .  THANK YOU!
