Taking Time Away From Blogging

After much thought I have decided to take some time away from blogging. I have also decided that when I do return to the blogosphere I will be starting up a brand new blog to reflect some of the changes in my life, and self since initially starting up this blog. To this end I will be developing a new website, and when ready will concentrate my efforts, and all my favourite memes into one blog only.

I am actually finding this process quite exciting, and am looking forward to coming back with a brand new, and even better blog.

Thank you to all the readers of this blog, and I hope you will consider joining me over at the new one.

I will be posing a link to the new site, and blog when available...stay tuned.....

Oh, and I will still be contributing to The Paranormal Blog...so please do join us over there too. :)

Happy Thanksgiving to any and all Canadians that happen to surf by :)

Peasant Girls

What makes the above photo so special is that it was taken in 1909. No, I'm not kidding 1909! Yet it looks like it could be from 2009!

It is almost eerie to think these girls have passed on long ago.

Here is the wiki entry on the photographer who expierimented with colour photos at the turn of the last century:
