Well, this brings us to the end of another year and as is our tradition, we’ll take the next couple of weeks off.
The first post of 2024 will be up by January 14. We wish all of you a joyful holiday season and a prosperous new year.
Thanks for joining us on the blog.
Well . . . it’s that time of year when our mailbox fills with an abundance of holiday catalogues and the occasional holiday greeting.
There are only a smattering of Christmas cards in our mailbox. This is mostly due to the fact that we don’t do the card thing.
Not to throw shade at those stalwart souls spending hours hand scribing cheerful notes. It seems like a self perpetuating task which has been over-shadowed by technology.
Why, even those “our year” letter writers have been reducing text in favor of a photo spread.
Regular posts on this blog will keep anyone interested current on all our adventures . . . though mostly fishing excursions . . . if there is any interest.
So we also choose to use this space to send out a holiday greetings and consider this our yearly Christmas card.
We hope you have enjoyed the past year as much as we have and are looking forward to the next one.
We wish you all good health, good food and great adventures.
The yearly holiday letter is a bit like fruit cake … many of us actually like the stuff. This type of Christmas card allows the author a chance to measure the past year. Milestones do have a certain appeal, letting people know what you’ve been up to and acting as markers to stop-overs in a trip around the sun.
364 days ago Blackdoghair.com popped back online with a simple trial post about snowfall in Central Oregon. This continued, bi-weekly, until there were slightly more than a hundred blog posts. Our holiday ‘fruit cake’ offer is this look at some favorite images from 2019.
Thanks to all the folks who left comments as they stopped by our web page and to everyone reading this post, we wish you the best of the holidays and joyous travels in the coming year.
JQ, Jack and Tip.
