Thank you so much, Martha! ❤️

Peyton was everything to me. He was by my side and comforted me through a difficult divorce in 2015. He was also a very important part of my creative journey...accompanying me on all of my outings with the camera. Losing him was more crushing than the end of a 24-year marriage. 😭

This platform is definitely a new and different animal. 😣 I think it will take all of us a bit of time to figure things out...but hopefully it will be worth the efforts and will make us less reliant on FB as a resource for sharing.

It's an easy 10-hour drive from me in Iowa, as well. I spent some time there after my dog...my very special boy, Peyton...transitioned out of this world, and being immersed in the Badlands was a good place to start the healing process from the loss.

Thanks so much for sharing, Sherri! Very much appreciated. 🙏❤️

All good here, Glenys. Hope you've been keeping well, also.

What do you mean 'when it's live', Jan? I'm new here, so still figuring things out. I thought it was live as soon as I created it. Maybe I'm missing something, but it is listed under the Starter Packs tab on my profile.

@jheastont.bsky.social Than you, Jan, for following here, as well. I appreciate that. Feel free to add me to your Starter Pack. I also have a Creative Explorers Starter Pack that I've just added you to...hope you don't mind.
