An Incredible Award

How about this... John over at FULL-ON FORWARD gave me an award! I'm honored that he finds inspiration from my thoughts and ramblings. Thank you, John!!

Now, what I'm actually supposed to do is pass this on to ten more bloggers that I find inspiring. I'm always hesitant to single folks out because sometimes people don't like doing this kind of stuff. What I'm going to do instead is offer this award to any of the blogs that I visit. You know if I read your blog and comment that I consider you deserving!

For those of you who have never visited John's blog, click on the link above and check it out. I can guarantee you will be entertained!

Awards

Thank you to my new blogging friend Betty at Cut and Dry for passing on a couple of awards! The Sunshine Award is meant to be passed on to 12 of your favorite bloggers and the rules for "The Versatile Blogger" award are as follows:

1. Thank the person who gave you this award.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Pass the award along to 15 bloggers who you have recently discovered and who you think are fantastic!
4. Contact the bloggers you've picked and let them know about the award.

I'm going to handle this in the same way that Petty Witter did over at Pen and Paper when she was tagged not long ago. Rather than pass these along to anyone specific, I invite any of you that are regular readers of my blog to feel free to pick up the awards and pass them along. If you don't want to do that, then at least share 7 things about yourself in the comments!! Here are mine:

1. I got my private pilot's license when I was first married.
2. My favorite breed of dog is the rottweiler.
3. Even though I like chocolate, I usually prefer vanilla.
4. Despite being a hunter, I spent 8 years as a vegetarian.
5. I learned to water-ski when I was 5 years old.
6. I prefer hot tea to coffee.
7. My favorite cuisine is Tex-Mex or Mexican
