One year ago today I wrote my first post on Spruce Hill and my blog was born. At first I used it as a tool to connect with my friends and family during my cancer treatment. I had visitors but mostly only my family. Since then I have posted 266 times, I have had 24,887 hits on my blog and have received 1,168 comments! In my first few days I only got 2 page views, my highest page view day was 198. I have made a lot of new friends and have turned into a blog addict. I carry my camera around with me where ever I go, to the dismay of my family. I read over 65 blogs everyday and find more blogs to visit every week. I have some very faithful readers and have some new readers too(I love new readers!). I have made friends with people all over the world. France, Germany, England, Australia,Canada, Israel, California, Texas, Colorado, Pennsylvania and even some here in my own state of Maryland. My blog has opened my world up and made it better.
I really appreciate all of my visitors that come to visit me here at Spruce Hill. As a token of my appreciation I am having a give away!
I am giving away this one of a kind handmade bracelet. Made of polished multi-colored aquamarine gemstones and sterling silver Bali beads and toggle.
All you have to do is leave me a comment on my blog. That's it! I will pick a person randomly from my comments in two days time. Please only enter one time, but if you go over to my photo blog and comment too, I will enter your name in twice.I will make the deadline 9:00 pm eastern standard time on Monday. I will announce the winner on Tuesday morning.

Happy Valentines Day!
