I do declare today’s word is BLAZE
Once upon a time, on the back of a motorcycle, searching for a better way
My sweetheart and I headed out from Tennessee, eager for a hopeful heyday.
We discovered magical Oregon filled with wonder, amidst natural, lush green trees
Our youthful bodies were ready to BLAZE the trails, thankful for the western fresh breeze.
We were on a roll and to our delight landed out in the rustic woodland countryside
Where we were destined to find a caring community while taking new paths in stride.
Meeting like-minded friends for inspirational gardening tips and a-plenty of potlucks
Two precious children to raise during dazzling days … yes indeed, we were lucky ducks.
Memories are precious, and I’m excited to create new ones with friends and next of kin
Sharing and spreading kindness with love as a flame BLAZING and burning within.
I would be remiss not to rhyme my gratitude for here and now in our lovely Oregon home
May y’all enjoy opportunities to BLAZE old and new trails and, of course, HAVE A GOOD ROAM!
Blessings y’all
Peace & love

You brought me such joy by sharing some of your time in Nashville with me, just as the trails we blazed so long ago in our neighborhood are joyful memories we share. Love, always!
Dearest Ginger…sharing good vittles and stories was a highlight while BLAZING the trail back to my Nashville roots. Your friendship is truly a blessing! Love always to you & yours
Lovely Joanie…I’m so glad the trail led you to Eugene where you touched my life and continue to do so across the years. I love you! Marsha touched my life
Dear Marsha, thanks so much for checking out the BLAZE blog with your kind comment. Your friendship is a keeper! Peace & love
