Georgetown is still a small-enough town that you do indeed see plenty of people you know wherever you go. Of course that is both good and bad, depending on what you're doing... I noticed your article on hybrid vehicles in Tackaberry Times, and see that it's also online at http://www.tackaberrytimes.com. Well done. Thanks for the good wishes Marnie, and the comment!

I have yet to find my blogging'groove', but I still only do it for me. On classical music, it is the only kind of background noise I can tolerate while writing. Other kinds of music seem distracting (maybe that's because I'm trying to sing along!). As for what is special about small towns, well, I'm pretty excited that this small town is home to so much talent and personality. I also have to admit that I'm always happy to see someone I know wherever I go, whether its the arena, grocery store or (of course) Tim Horton's. Wishing you continued success with Escarpment Views, Gloria. It 'wroks'!! Marnie Welcome to the blogging world, Gloria. I have yet to find my blogging’groove’, but I still only do it for me.

Your encouragement about blogging is valuable because of your own experience posting informative and entertaining entries consistently for a long time, with or without comments. We both know you have many more regular readers than just the people who comment. I’m happy to follow your example in the blog world. To those who don’t know Sue’s blog yet, she writes about writing and communications and other things that strike her, at The Red Jacket Diaries [http://www.getitwrite.ca/category/the-red-jacket-diaries/].

I look forward to reading your words more than quarterly in Escarpment Views. You might find that blogging is also like putting a message in a bottle, and you have no idea which shores it has reached or which beachcombers have picked up your note. Don't be discouraged if readers are shy to comment at first! Gloria, welcome to the blogging world! I look forward to reading your words more than quarterly in Escarpment Views.
