My Wish For All My Active Rain Friends For 2010

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Realty 0575737

Having written more than 1,100 blog posts in my little over two years here in the Rain, I have had many readers and for the most part those that were reading and commenting on what I wrote, I went back and read what they wrote about. Each person had a unique perspective and style from their own locale and at this time of the new year I wanted to give them my best for a wonderful NEW YEAR in their life. But time being what it is I feel I just haven't been able to get back to all of them. So I thought I'd write ANOTHER LOL blog post and maybe they would find me again with my well wishes.

So I will keep this short, inspired by this country song. I laugh at myself with country, as I used to not be able to stand the twang and all the trailer park romance and breakup stories. I think country has grown on me, I kind of like it a lot now, including Taylor Swift, Rascal Flatts, and others, either that or I have been in Texas too long. Anyway here is

Yeah, you've been in Texas too long, LOL. Actually, I like some country as well. And bluegrass, too. My theme song is from The Flying Burrito Brothers or was it New Riders of the Purple Sage? Dim lights, thick smoke . . . I once partied with The Flying Burrito Brothers after a Denver concert many years ago. Very nice, down-to-earth guys.

Hi Gary - Great way to express your thoughts.  You mean you didn't want to sing it to us yourself???

You were one of the first people I subscribed to here on AR.  You know how to keep us all "grounded". 

Best wishes for the year ahead.

Thanks for the song!  I have not listened to country music since moving away from TX and I was tempted to not click on the link.  Now I am glad I did.  Great message. 

Have a great 2010.

Hi Gary,  wow what a nice way to wish your friends here on AR Happy New Year.  I for one LOVE RAscal Flatts and I'm not from Texas either.  I grew up with a dad who loved country music...I hated it....married a guy who not only loved country music but Rascal Flatts could have passed for his twin brother and my husband even sang like RAscal Flatts ( one look back " wish I would have" like to have had my husband cut the record that had been his wish.  Need I say .....How did I ever hate country music...love it.......My favorite RASCAL Flatts song dedicated to my best friend ( my husband )  " Blessed the Broken Road

You sure stirred up a lot of memories here...you seem to always to that with  your subscribers....Hope 2010 brings you everything you wish for.
