The A-Z Post is titled &#8220;Quarry,&#8221; and if you&#8217;re allowed to read adult themes, I think you&#8217;ll enjoy meeting two characters from <em>Granite Hill\u00a0<\/em>in today&#8217;s post.\u00a0 If you&#8217;re not, stick around and check out the blog tour post about three blogs I read regularly and why.<\/p>\n<p>This is a tough topic. I subscribe to over one hundred blogs via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theoldreader.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Old Reader<\/a>.\u00a0 Certainly there must be three blogs I read regularly, right? Ummm. Sort of.\u00a0 I suppose I need to confess my category titled &#8220;Spurs&#8221; is on top of my feed.\u00a0 That means I regularly read six blogs about the NBA San Antonio Spurs (to distinguish from the European football Spurs team).\u00a0 Should I be ashamed to admit that on a blog tour related to writing?\u00a0 Probably. If you have any interest in them, you already know what they are, and if you don&#8217;t, I&#8217;m not going to bore you with the details.<\/p>\n<p>The second category is Writers. I&#8217;ve subscribed to 32 writer&#8217;s blogs. My &#8220;Go-to&#8221; writer blogs have shifted over the years, and I hesitate to name names, because it&#8217;s a constantly shifting terrain.<\/p>\n<p>The third category, which is about to be boosted to the top category, is weather.\u00a0 I do track the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhc.noaa.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">National Hurricane Center<\/a>.\u00a0 Since it&#8217;s the &#8220;off-season&#8221; for hurricanes and the regular season for NBA Basketball, this makes sense to me.\u00a0 But hurricane season is rapidly approaching.\u00a0 Are you prepared for foul weather likely to be found in your geographic area?\u00a0 Check the National Hurricane Center&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhc.noaa.gov\/prepare\/ready.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">site for preparedness<\/a> to make sure.\u00a0 Maybe you&#8217;re getting ready to enter tornado season?\u00a0 Here&#8217;s where to go to check your preparedness. If you&#8217;re in Alabama or other coastal regions, get ready for both.<\/p>\n<p>See you next month!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome regular Merry Go Round Blog Tour readers and April A-Z Challenge readers.
