Over the last year I've come to ~know~ many folks I never would have had the opportunity to know if it weren't for this crazy thing called blogging. Yes, I know blogs and blogging have been around much longer than I've been aware of them, but I'm still amazed how much my personal world has been opened in the year I've been a part of this great blogging adventure.
One of the blogging folks I've ~met~ and have become friends with is Michele. She's the author (blogthor??) of the blog, The Rocky Mountain Retreat (click on the name - duh! - to go there), a marvelous collection of gorgeous photos of British Columbia, fly fishing adventures and, well, just winter more than any other season. However, the heart of her blog is about her fight against the devastating effects of epilepsy. Admiration for this woman? In spades! Michele is so very compromised by epilepsy and every day in spite of that, puts a positive spin on her world. I am in awe, complete and total awe of her.
(Please visit Michele's and my friend ~Fishing Guy~. His tribute to her is wonderful.)
So in honor of Michele and Purple Day
Go here for my collection of flower purpleness!
