"Sometimes you deserve a second chance, not because you weren't fabulous the first time but because the timing and circumstances weren't quite right. You just got overlooked."
-Carol Williams   

Does getting Featured here in The Rain sometimes feel like a roll of the dice? Not anymore. I'm always open to member suggestions on posts that should be Featured but somehow got missed. 

Giving deserving posts more exposure is what Second Chance Saturday is all about.  As you read blog posts during the week, be sure to TAG ME in the comment section of any post you wish to nominate as Feature-worthy.  Then watch for it in the next edition of Second Chance Saturday.

Hi Debb Janes EcoBroker and Bernie Stea JD 
Fun!  Wave to my brother as you pass by Corbett and, specifically, below Crown Point. He and his wife live about 1 mile direct east of Crown Point.

Hi Will Hamm 
My game has been a bit inconsistent this year. Had the best score of my life this summer and one of the worst scores in a couple decades.  Que sera sera!  LOL

Hi Kathy Streib 
Absolutely! The more we get the word out, the better as far as I'm concerned. Sorry I'm so late getting back to acknowledging your request.  Who knew retirement would be so demanding. I always feel behind on something... or everything.  LOL
