WOW, Thanks!
Howdy, friends, family, fiends, foes, and all you funky folks! I’m here with a heart overflowing with gratitude and a bit of that good old rock-and-roll excitement that keeps life bearable. Why? Because I just hit the big 500 followers on Medium.com! Now, to some people, that might not seem like a lot. But, to me, it feels like I’ve reached the top of a mountain, or at least the peak of a solid hill. You know, it’s a ‘pinch me’ moment, and I couldn’t be more thankful to all of you who’ve joined me on this wild ride of words, stories, B.S., and good old-fashioned musings.

And, of course, some thanks are definitely in order!
