I need to return the favour. <br /><br />The friendships are an unanticipated dividend I never dreamed might result.

I love the waterlogue ap, since I can never get the paint to do what I would like it too when I have an actual brush in my hand ... I know it's cheating, but who cares. Very nice photo of Pointe Claire, I had a friend in university who grew up there.VStar Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13634216576989421497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-68532168682820728192014-11-02T18:51:00.079-05:002014-11-02T18:51:00.079-05:00I've heard the "why ride" question m...I've heard the "why ride" question many times and it has been the subject of just about all moot-blogs. The "why blog" question has only been touched by a handful.Early on, the "it isn't Facebook" reason was once common though now many of those who blog seem to also have Facebook accounts.Another common reason seems to be that it started out as a public diary or sorts or at least a reminder of what has gone on.<br /><br />I could agree with either of these reasons and have been pleasantly surprised when others started commenting on the posts...RichardMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773834892715980735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-79427211608360782092014-11-02T17:03:29.867-05:002014-11-02T17:03:29.867-05:00Thanks Sonja.

Blogging and commenting on each others blogs has become the friendly picket fence talk.<br /><br />Isn't it great that we ride, we blog, and we actually were fortunate to meet each other... priceless, like you said."David Massehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09346419242154545286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-22866300705562758912014-11-02T16:54:44.212-05:002014-11-02T16:54:44.212-05:00It's odd Dom, because though I've lived he...It's odd Dom, because though I've lived here for twenty-five years, and I've passed that little street countless times, it was the first time I took it. I had intended to take another street and go to the end of the point to catch a sunrise view, and took this street by mistake.<br /><br />What a view though.David Massehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09346419242154545286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-14733875674139481202014-11-02T08:24:21.620-05:002014-11-02T08:24:21.620-05:00Nice reflection shot David!Nice reflection shot David!redlegsrideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10927757855921321097noreply@blogger.com
