Today I Received an Ear!

Tom, aka Fishing Guy, has an interesting blog. It is about fishing and much more. He has become a great photographer and has many readers. He gave me an award for my blog. I don't pass on awards, I can't ever decide which person/blog should get one. I follow more than sixty blogs and think they all deserve awards or I wouldn't read them, right? If I have ever commented on your blog, then you deserve this award, too.

The Van Gogh’s Ear Award is for Outstanding Artistic Achievement in art, photography, writing, philosophy, comedy, and/or blogging. Since Van Gogh cut off his ear, it can be passed around. Thank you, Fishing Guy! I truly appreciate it.


Here you are, the award for my blogging friends, including Fishing Guy. Maybe you would like to pass it on to someone that has a great blog that you enjoy. Go for it!


By the way, I put a few blogs on the blog's I read down on the sidebar. Again, I can't put them all there, I may rotate them once in a while. Most of the links on the side I follow, so you can get to more blogs I read there. The list grows and grows........

"Since Van Gogh cut off his ear, it can be passed around"??

LOL!! Couldn't help but laugh when I read this post. Quite accommodating of Van Gogh to lend us his ear, don't you think? ;-)

Jo: I'm so glad you posted the award. You did deserve it for all you share of your art with the world.
