Whew, that's a lot of words

Part of me wants to use this post to mark my 700th Active Rain post, and part of me says just keep going with business as usual.

For what it's worth, this is #700. It's been a great ride, and I'm just getting warmed up.

I don't know how many words 700 posts translates into, but it's got to be quite a few.

Even though 700 is a sizeable total, it's less than 800 and 1,000 and other numbers that others have accomplsihed. I didn't write this for any fuss - mainly to encourage others who are on their journey. Each successive post adds up.

Keep blogging.

Steve - Wow, that is a lot of words. Having ironically posted my 100th today I wonder how long I have to live to make 700. ;) Congrats on your determination, longevity, and interesting posts

Great Work Steve! 

700 posts is not a picnic, and my hats off to your persistance, keep it up. I love your style, and everytime I come to your blog and I see your smile, it makes me smile. Best wishes! :)

Claude,

Like the days - the posts go by faster than you think. You'll be on the next 100 before you know it. Appreciate your kind words. Thank you. :)

Sharon,

Thanks so much. I'll just keep writing. Funny, I used to think I would have trouble finding things to talk about. :)

Good job. I am in the middle 500 range and I am actually slowing down a bit!

Posted by Chuck Carstensen (RE/MAX Results) about 3 years ago

Steve:  I think I'm right behind you, nipping at your heels.  My blogging has certainly slowed down a bit since the spring market, but I'll be right there with you soon.

Chuck,

For me, getting to 500 was harder than getting past it. Just keep going - even if it's a little slower. :)

Hi Steve, 700 posts is just an incredible number to me.  Isn't it time for an oil change, or something? LOL!!

Congratulations on your milestone, and I wish you continued success!

Mary,

Oil change - I like that. Thanks for the comments. I'll keep wrting. Please keep reading. :)

Steve - keep it up and you will be almost as prolific as L Ron Hubbard;^)

Congratulations.  I think I'm still in the 70's and recently have gotten busy so not as much time to blog.  I didn't really get active here until Feb of this year.  Congrats again!

Steve...

Congratulations on this milestone. It won't be long before we both break the 400K barrier ...we've come a long way together! And you're right, a lot of words!
