So in celebration of the belated seventh anniversary (March 28) of this blog here's the story:

| Sunset on the beach |
When I first started this journey I wanted a place to keep track of what I've read as well as my thoughts on those books. It was going to be a place just for me as I had no idea what blogdom was all about.
I thought about some of my favorite things in order to come up with a name. I live on Lake Michigan and love our beach and boardwalk. They are two places I love to be, which led to the song Under The Boardwalk that has always been a favorite of mine.
Under the Boardwalk it was. I had no idea at the time what would follow. It has been such a pleasure to meet other book lovers and share this passion.
In celebration of seven years I will be offering a couple of my favorite things that are locally made. Enter by comment and tell me if you prefer dark or milk chocolate. Please leave an email address for easy contact. I will draw a winner April 25th
The pictures used on this blog are of the beach, boardwalk and pier. If I've used pictures that were not taken by myself, family and/or friends, photo credit is given.

Happy, happy blogoversary. And, yeah, who knew where blogging was going to take us. The best part has been making friends. I grew up on the Lakes and still miss the water. Dark would be my preference, since you asked. :)

Happy Belated Blogoversary! Seven years, wow, great job!
Since you've mysteriously asked :) I would have said both kinds, but my doctor says no sweets or a small bit of dark chocolate occasionally, so that's my official answer-- Thanks.

Not entering as live too far away, but prefer dark chocolate! Always have a piece in the evening! Congrats on the blogoversary, and it was very interesting to hear how you came up with the name.
congratulations on your blog anniversary, I too didn't know that blogging would take me here. I always sing that song when I open your blog. Love it.
Wow Nise, 7 years is amazing!! I love visiting your blog, sharing the book love and I love that song. Beautiful photos, makes me want to visit so bad until I remember all the snow photos too LOL. Happy Blogoversary :)
Happy 7th year! Well Done! I like the beach and boardwalk photos but you can keep the snow. Sorry it has been a long winter for you.
I prefer milk chocolate.

Here I was just going to say "Happy Blogiversary!" and then I find out there is chocolate involved - woohoo! :) I prefer dark chocolate.
Amazing to think how long many of us have been blogging - it just seems like it's been a couple of years since I started, but I realized the other day that it's almost been 6 years for me.

Happy blogiversary. I started my reading blog to keep track of the books I was reading too. I didn't know there were so many other bookies with blogs either. BTW, I like milk chocolate.
