Today is the first day...



... of the rest of your life. That quip seems appropriate as I embark on on this new venture via blogging.

My husband often complains that I am resistant to change. He is right. I like to know what I am doing so that I can do it well. Change requires learning and practice before one can begin raising the bar.

Without my husband, I'd still be stuck at the typewriter with a bottle of whiteout. Well, maybe not. I might have bought myself a home computer. One thing's for sure. I'd still be shooting 35mm film and waiting days to see photo results. I knew my Canon AE-1 Program inside and out. Who wouldn't after 23 years and thousands of frames? For years I jeered, "Don't bother me with a digital camera until the quaility is as good."

Last year my husband bought a Sony Cybershot for my birthday. That gift changed everything. Now I get results immediately and can share them with a few clicks of the mouse. So... there's no turning back on this count.

However, when my husband suggested abandoning my email list and opening a blogsite, I'll admit – I flinched. More change. More steps to learn. And the biggie – What will happen when I open up my work up to the public?

Today I take the plunge... letting you in with a view from the hilltop of our north-central Minnesota community and Along Life's Road. Enjoy the ride.
