  Woot - congratulations on completing the first   BlogBoost  challenge of 2026 -  we did it!    Paul's next challenge starts in April, so save the link!  Whether we posted daily, or just  'regularly,'  we all gain from each challenge. Thank you Paul for inspiration and hosting! Cosmic Teacher & SoulCollage®️ Evolving My biggest accomplishment this January has been participating in the SoulCollage®️ facilitator training!  We've competed 6 of our 8 sessions, and will finish our course Wednesday, February 4th.

Thank you Paul for inspiration and hosting! Camp Arrah Wanna- Oregon Cascades As  Mark Twain said , "Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts."   Visiting each other's blogs offers unique way to travel, giving us  peeks into each other's worlds. Perhaps someone's post revived an old interest, or sparked a new one, and ours provided the same for another.  As our  challenge  ends, new opportunities beckon.
