Not only was Table for Five named as one of the Top 75 Blogs Parents with Teens Should Read by Bold Earth Adventures, but it came at just the right time – it’s Table for Five’s Six Year Bloggiversary!!

I actually know that I started the blog sometime around the last week of August in 2005, but somehow in the move from Blogger to WordPress.com, I lost a couple of posts. My oldest post is dated September 1st, 2005, I wish it had a nicer title than Feeling sad and frustrated, but that was right after Hurricane Katrina and all I was doing was watching CNN and feeling, well, sad and frustrated.

Anyway, it’s my 6th Anniversary of blogging, so what a nice surprise to get an email letting me know I had been included in a Top 75 Best list!  Here’s some info about the site that gave me the award, copied from their footer:

“BOLD EARTH is a summer adventure travel camp alternative to traditional Teen Camps and Summer Teen Tours. Since 1976, BOLD EARTH has offered Adventure Travel Summer Camps for Teenagers which combine Adventure Travel with Service Work, Language Study and Wilderness Skills, on our U.S.A. Summer Camps for Teens and International Overnight Summer Camp Adventures. Check out our site for up-to-date information on all BOLD EARTH Teen Summer Camp Adventures for the best teen camp summer possible.”

Bold Earth is also about giving to charity, and they have three groups that are vying for a cash prize of $500. They are:

-The Colorado Fourteeners Initiative
-Ecuador Niños De La Calle (children of the street)
-The Amazon Conservation Project

Go here if you have an interest in any of those groups and want to cast your vote for them:  http://www.boldearth.com/Charity_Blog_Voting.php

So, how cool is that? My blog turns six, gets an award, gets a chance to help charity, not too shabby!  Here’s to six more years, right?
