Congratulations to Don Morrison. He is a very fine man.
Hmm it seems like your blog ate my first comment (it was super
long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
I as well am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any suggestions for inexperienced blog writers? I’d really appreciate it.
Congratulations Don. A well deserved award.
