Because I like milestones, celebrating my 2000th post was a given, but I’m going with a low-key approach – a post with a little reflection – a post where I can appreciate the presence of those who stop by to comment – and surprisingly, not a post featuring many factoids about the number.
The journey since 28 August 2008 has been interesting. I have no doubt about the many good people I’ve encountered in my little corner of the world. Good people simply have a way of finding each other.
That first post was a short one, but below is the one paragraph that has served as a guiding light for me … and I’ve done that!
To readers I promise insight, yet will respect comments from others. I will be respectful to all as bashing is not my style, thus hope others are the same. Disagreement and criticism are fine, but it should be done with class. Other times I will simply provide information for readers to use.
Blogs involve an interaction between the writer and readers. I greatly appreciate the readers here – and a special tip of the hat to the hardy that have been around for much of my journey. The visitor with the longest tenure has been Tim – a personal friend here that I’ve known for many years. He actually encouraged me to start the blog after I told him of the possibility. Thanks to all the readers, especially those who have taken time to comment. A toast to all who have stopped by here – especially those who took the time to comment.

What’s ahead? Well, more of the same. I can say that I have over 10 posts in the ready queue (including a short story) – and more typical-me posts about eclectic topics in draft mode. Onward toward the next milestone – 10 years.
Videos have played a vital role on many of the 2000 posts, so I end this occasion with a song you may not know – but the title fits for my view of my readers – and it was the opening song at the first Moody Blues concert I attended. Thanks for stopping by and for supporting my little corner of the world – Be well, do good work, and stay in touch. (Garrison Keillor)
Congratulations, Frank. I haven’t been around much, but reaching a milestone is worth stopping in for!
I’ll be back for 3K!

This is a lovely post Frank, celebrating your 2000th!! (I think I’ve managed one tenth of that in the almost 5 years I’ve been blogging!) It’s quite a commitment and I know you have garnered many loyal readers. I’m not sure how I arrived here or when – I know it is much more recently than Tim 🙂 And even though I disappear from time to time it’s mostly due to other commitments (or broken laptops) and I always look forward to coming by and catching up on my return. Well done and hearty good wishes for another 2000 posts ❤

The fact that the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ignored the Moody Blues for so long has been a frequent point of contention on multiple posts in this collection of 2000 … and then this song came to mind for this post. Perfect! … BTW – they get inducted into the Hall this spring!
2000 has come through persistence and longevity. Then again, I went through one long stretch of posting 6 days a week. I had a pattern as I thought of it as a weekly magazine. I eventually ran out of stream to keep that pace. Nonetheless, a wonderful journey! Thanks for stopping by … and a toast to our link – Pauline!
