Welcome to 1710 Blogland Lane!



At the invitation of Marion (#7) at dragonflyspoetryandprolixity.blogspot.com and the vision of KJ (#9) @ karenjasper.blogspot.com who invites one and all to homestead on Blogland Lane, I have eagerly joined this community and moved into 1710 Blogland Lane. I realize I'm a little off the beaten path, but I fully intend to be an active member here. We all can be!
My living room is intended for reading, writing, dreaming, intimate soirees, and morning coffee tete-a-tetes. It faces the ocean at the back of my house. I love my house for its 300-year-old history (hence the address, 1710!). However, the heart of my house is in the back facing water. It has a fireplace so I have several elements to balance me, as will everyone who drops by.
The widow's walk on top provides a fine view of the ocean, but I haven't mustered up the courage to go up there yet. I do plan to walk my smooth, sandy beach in all seasons.
Please feel free to stop by any time! I'll leave a light on for you!

    I'm so glad you've moved into the neighborhood! Your new home is lovely. May I join you on some of your walks along the beach? You already know you're welcome at my humble cottage any time.

    hello margaret, the beach view is a winner! i'd be looking out there all the time, listening, smelling the air, trying so hard to learn how to describe or paint the little curls of the small wavelets, or the feeling and appearance of footprints in the sand. the curving room with the big long couches. yum!!!! have a sweet day. steven

    Hi Delwyn! I told Marion that her Delwynian landscaping looked very inviting! Will you be moving some time soon? I hope so! LOVE xxox Actually, Delwyn, you can actually bring your whole place as is, too!!

    Hi Friko! Don't be confused: it's a fantasy game that Karen Jasper made up. She explains it in great detail on her blog (referenced above). I thought it was fun making up not only my home but my lifestyle! In your case, you can just bring your home and grounds and lifestyle as is!! LOVE xxox

    Hi Wanda! You can move, too, just as is! I know we'll all love being neighbors! LOVE xxox

    Hi Angela! I love your charming cottage! And I love the fact you'll be serving savories and sherry! It will be wonderful having a friend to walk along the beach with!

    Hi Steven! Your artful description of my beach makes me so happy! Thank you! Will you be moving, too?

    Thank you, Lynne! You are certainly invited to move to Blogland Lane as well! We would love to have you there!

    Hi Sharon! You would be a great addition to the community! You could be the artistic Pied Piper for all the children! And just think: you can illustrate your own home and environs!

    Love that living room, perfect place for soirées intimes avec quelques amis (et qqs bonnes bouteilles bien sûr), and the widow's walk is no doubt a good place for a breath of fresh air...

    Hi Delwyn! I just picked up my dag commendation! I take that as a compliment! It's what I love about Australians: they're cultivated and down to earth at the same time, both wonderful qualities to have. LOVE

    Hi Owen! You are invited every single day to visit my living room! I consider you the hub of activity of all of Blogland! And I found a great wine for those occasions: Belle Glos pinot noir, Clark & Telephone Vineyard, Santa Barbara, CA. I've reserved a few cases in my cave!
