How to celebrate 500?

I had visions of armfuls of balloons floating in the breeze. It was not to be.

After today, I'll let myself off blipping each day. I am kind of scared I will stop altogether if I don't indulge in blipping life around me, but I will try to take better photos instead and I hope to have more time to gaze at others' wonderful creativity.

Thank you everyone, in particular those lovely people who visit often. I really do appreciate it!
