An Extra Special Tip o' the Hat Goes To…

Howdy y’all!

Hey, just so ya know, a big part of the success of this year’s Blogapalooza was due to the help of some truly wonderful and generous folks! Yessir, there was whole herd o’ folks (31 in all) who volunteered to write their posts – and submit them early – just so there’d be a full week of posts already scheduled when Blogapalooza kicked off back on Jan. 5.

In fact, I want to give a special mention to Karen Hanrahan who zapped her entry to me within hours of the call goin’ out! I mean, the ink had barely dried on the email! Pretty impressive, I’ll tell ya, and it earned her the honor of havin’ the first post. (Hat tip, Karen!)

Now, to ALL my fellow writers who helped get things goin’ this year, I hereby award y’all the honorary title of “Bubba“, and salute you with a great big ol’ tip o’ the Middle Zone hat!

Here’s the list of Bubbas, in order of their appearance. To read their guest post here at the Zone, click on their name; to visit their blog, click on the blog’s name. (However, do not pass Go, or collect $200.)

Thanks for makin’ this year’s Blogapalooza so extra-special, y’all!

    Aw! I am so proud to be a Bubba! Thanks so much for the opportunity to be a part of this, what an amazing idea and what a great turnout! I have it bookmarked and now I can go through all those great blogs all year long. It’s like having your own little blog library, right at your fingertips! Bravo!
