Here is a mid-summer collection of articles by the always interesting members of the Blogging Boomers Carnival. Each member of this Carnival is:
- a Baby Boomer
- a Blogger
- passionate about their chosen topic, and
- full of interesting ideas and thoughts to share with their readers.
This week includes another interesting collection of topics. Please check out each of these Bloggers. And as always, remember blogs are not social media unless the readers participate. So please take a moment to leave comments on the blog posts that interest, inspire or even annoy you. Blogging is much more exciting when it becomes an on-going conversation.
