We were enjoying a Christmas Eve happy hour here at the park and met a couple of fulltimers. I asked if they had a blog and explained that I had two.
"No you don't!" our friend Steve chimed in. "You only have one!"
Technically, I do have two blogs. But, as I've mentioned, one has been woefully unattended. For some reason or another, Bullwinkle's Travels has been a bit of a challenge. And, in Steve's view, that means it no longer exists.
Then, while paying a visit to fellow fulltimer Dee's blog, I noticed she'd made a few changes to her blogroll. I spotted a few new-to-me blogs and gave them a look. As I worked my way down Dee's list of blogs I noticed something. She'd added a new section: Blogs Not Posted Very Often. And, what to my wondering eyes did appear? Bullwinkle's Travels was on that list - banished to blogging no-man's land!
Geez! Miss a few(?) blog posts and you find out who your friends are!
I don't really mean to put Steve and Dee on the spot. Actually, several folks have commented about the lights being out at Bullwinkle's place. A few kind readers have checked in to make sure we're OK and not still stranded in Thompson, Iowa. (Thank God, we're not!) But, other than the slightly bruised ego of the resident blog writer, I'm pleased to report that all is well with us.
And, guess what? Bullwinkle's Travels is a bit more up to date! There's a post about highlights of our November in Kansas City, our climb to the top of Enchanted Rock and a look at our Hill Country Christmas. I have a few gaps to fill in, like our memorable stop in Oklahoma City, our visit with John and Sandy to the LBJ Ranch and more Fun in Hill Country. (If you see links in that last sentence, I've brought the blog even more up to date!)
I sure hope Steve and Dee will notice!

Have you ever thought of merging the two blogs? Just saying... :)
I second Judy's motion. The Great Escape is the only one I read because I keep forgetting about Bullwinkle.
merging might be a good idea you know!!..since your life is no longer a secret..I was feeling sad for 'Bullwinkle's Travels..forgotten and banished to the island of blogs that no one wanted!..purge the blogs??..I know who am I to say!..its is your blog..do with it what you will..we will still read both..but we wait with baited breath for a post!!..we know you are busy living your lives!..but there are those of us out here living vicariously through you!!
Hey I know what you mean... I have been gone from the blogging world for a while & I am trying very hard to get back on the bloggin track... I have missed my blogland friends! Have a Very Happy New Year!!!

by the way ..just one more comment?..your friend Steve hasn't posted on his blog since December 12th!..so really, should he be giving you a hard time?? :)
I'm behind on reading blogs. Yep, I noticed I'll put you back up to "active" at the beginning of the year. Several blog changes coming up. Thanks for the great post, I'm watching. ***hugs***
I was out of touch for a couple of days and it has taken me hours to catch up on all the blogs I enjoy following.
I wouldn't give up on one of them!
Bloggers should only feel they should blog if and when they want too!
It seems that blogging is getting to be like working in education-publish or perish!
Love both of your blogs, but tend to only go to Bullwinkle when I want info on campgrounds. Thanks for writing them.
