Today, August 4, is Coast Guard Day. You can read all about it here.
And what better day to announce an award than Coast Guard Day? This one even looks like a life ring with a heart in the center!
I'm honored to have received the Circle of Friends Award from Medeia Sharif. Medeia's blog is chock full of interesting things, and I always learn something when I visit.
The rules are simple:
Pass the award to five other bloggers.
Post a link to their blogs on yours.
Notify them they've received an award.
Easy-peasy ... 1-2-3!
The five bloggers I'm passing the award to are:
Donna at Donna's Book Pub
Ann and Jen at Long Journey Home
Jennifer Shirk at Me, My Muse and I
Holly at Scribbles and Splashes
Lola at Sharp Pen/Dull Sword
And to all Coasties out there . . . Happy Coast Guard Day!

Congrats to you and your picks! It does look like a life saver ring. :)
Great post!
So glad you highlighted this group that had the recent oil spill slime up their already down-and-dirty job.
You go, girl.
Loving this place.
Sigh. I'm leaning back, imagining that sea breeze...
