Launching…..

launchblog

Well gang, 1,2,3….here I go. Just like my son launching into the great blue below, I’m taking the leap into the world of blogging. Thanks for visiting. Come back often, I’ll share my life and what I’m working on. I’ll share my journeys with you and let you in on all (well most) of my cool finds. Poke around my sidebars to see what I’m reading and what inspires me.

One of my big inspirations is a poem a day at The Writers Almanac and I love listening to Garrison Keillor read to me each day. You can find him here. Take yourself away to the land of the spoken word in poem form. I’ve linked you to one of my favorite Mary Oliver poems, but he reads a new one everyday. Check it out! And I’ll be seeing you around here!

  1. You definitely have harnessed the art of living rich (not money)! No time presently to dig in to this in depth; yet, even just the colors of the log page and the written entries speak volumes about a life well lived. But I’m not surprised; you were living well at 17. Will check this out more thoroughly when I return from this nuts weekend jaunt I mentioned to you. xo M.

  2. Hi Fran,
    Your site looks great! Erica and I just looked at it together and now we have to check out Two Dogs Cafe! It looks adorable and right here in Longmont. Can’t wait to see you and your crew next month.

    Welcome to The World of Blogging, my Girl!
    I can’t wait til the Universe gets to see your stunning pages, unique and one-of-a-kind Travel Books and the beading that takes your breath away.

    Thanks for the Shout-Out, but Michelle Ward STILL leads me through the technical Jungle of Blogging like Anne Sullivan leading Helen Keller.

    We are Blowing you Kisses and shouting:
    “Bon Voyage”…..
