For a smile as wide as a country sunrise
Hi everyone! We did it! We have crossed another goal that I set a while back, that is we now have over 900 followers! Wow, that’s amazing to me. I know I have seen some blogs start up and they hit 900 or more followers in just a few months and that’s great, and it has taken me a little longer than that, over 3 years in fact, but that’s okay.

Muffin and I are very happy with these numbers I can assure you on that! Muffin was jumping around like a kangaroo after I told her the news. Honest. She really was. Though it might have also been the blueberry maple cupcake. She absolutely loves those things.

Of course I do as well. I would have been jumping around myself, but I’m not allowed to do such things at the moment. I don’t think my doctor would be too happy to hear about me doing such a thing. And I know my back would also not be happy with it.

And I need my back to settle down so I can get out walking again, hopefully soon, though it won’t be soon enough to take advantage of the nice weather coming this weekend. Oh well, there will be more nice days coming.

So, from Muffin and I, plus all the other critters around here, thank you so very much for joining us here at Steve’s Country!! I hope you will all continue to enjoy all the stories and photos each day! Have a fantastic day everyone and God bless!

Steve and Muffin.

That’s interesting, it is something I have noticed, at least 3 people who expanded quick are no longer blogging after less than a year.π€
Eeek! I almost didn’t show myself since I don’t have any good pics of me, but, I took a chance!π³π

Thank you so very much Ribana! Yep, I never thought I would ever pass 900 followers! But while the number of followers goes higher, the number of readers goes lower. I wish I knew why that was. One blogger, who no longer blogs, said my posts were dull. I was told recently by another blogger that my writing wasn’t as good anymore as it used to be. So I’m checking on that possibility now. I know since getting Covid it has been a lot harder to write. Thank you so much for being here Ribana! Have a wonderful evening/week!ππΈπ»π

I donβt think anyone can judge and say your posts are dull. If he/she doesnβt like them then just donβt read! It is a hobby and it is your way of writing! You donβt need to write how the others would want! Keep it going Steve and donβt forget to enjoy it! π
