Why be a blogger?

The inspiration behind the blog came from a friend of mine named Julie. Julie and I have been pen pals all summer, and she finally came to work at Rock Creek Lakes Resort for the month of September. Julie is one of those amazing, inspiring people who makes you want to do something crazy awesome. When I read Julie's blog, http://myvelvetbumper.blogspot.com/, I thought it was pretty neat that there was a place where she could write whatever she wanted, and not have to have it placed into a News Feed with 1,000 other friend's statuses. Whether anyone actually ends up reading this blog or not, I like the idea of someone skimming down my posts because they're interested in what Amy's been up to.
