I was thinking

Good Grief, that was probably my first mistake. But frequently my mind goes on little vacations and it gets all sorts of ideas.
Today I was thinking, that since we seem to be at the end of yet another snow storm, I would go out and take some pictures

 

This is standing at the end of my driveway looking up the sidewalk that runs in front of my house.

He wants to walk, I want to take pictures. Who do you think is going to win this one?

 

This is the Duke trail. It leads from the front of the driveway to the back door.

 

This is Duke's view of the Duke trail.

I was also thinking that maybe I should change my cell phone number. That way I wouldn't get any more text messages from a certain daughter who lives in Colorado and feels the need to send me a picture of the current temperature. I should have taken a picture of the text so I could post it. I get weather updates frequently now.

I was also thinking about making some changes regarding Entrecard. I'm not getting rid of it. It's still there but I no longer care if I drop or not. I'm more concerned with having time to read all the blogs I enjoy so much. What I've done is moved all of my favorites to google reader. However I keep finding that I've missed some. If I used to frequently visit you and lately seem to have dropped off the face of the earth it's because I've somehow overlooked adding you. Please let me know so I can make sure I don't miss anything else. By doing this I'm only spending time going to blogs that have a new post up. If I'm there and think of it I do the drop. The only thing I've noticed with the new system is that I have time to find more blogs I really like. Before you know it I'm going to be spending just as much time as I always did.

Did you say Free?

I started doing my drops this morning and came across a post that I had to share with you. It's so important that I dropped the dropping to write this post.
The post I'm referring to was on Cornyman's Money Blog. The title of the post was EntreCard: Do you want FREE advertising for your blog? Well who wouldn't like free advertising? So I read on. You should go check out the post. It led me to a site called dropaholics

You may or may not have noticed the new widget on my sidebar. As of today, the top 10 droppers have a spot on my blog giving them free advertising. The way I see it, if you are dropping on me, it's only right that I should show my appreciation. Rather than doing the top ten for the last month, I chose to set it to the current top droppers, therefore how long your ad runs in the widget depends on how often you visit.
