Looking back on the A-Z Challenge

Old Apple tree in Etna California
May 2013

A little over a month ago I heard about
the 2013 A-Z Challenge. Since I had
in the past challenged myself to produce
year long blogs "A Snap a Day" and "A Word a Day"
I knew that the A-Z Challenge would be
not only be fun, but would give me the 
opportunity to  discover new blogs and 
bloggers that otherwise I never would have.
By and large it was a good experience and
I'll participate next year!  
The rules were simple and I was a bit surprised
that some folks could not follow them.
How hard is it to comment? 
The worst offenders were the ones that had
so many ads etc on their blogs that created
in a way a "traffic jam" on my lap top.
Some of that was due to my lap top being older
and our internet service up here in the
mountains can be iffy. 
 I learned to avoid those type of blogs. 
Looking forward to following the bloggers I
"met" during the A-Z Challange.
 Enjoy your day and have a great year!
