Happy belated birthday, Buller Time!

Better late than never, I would like to note for Buller Time’s tens (ha!) of readers the recently passed second birthday of the blog. The first two posts were made on 15 June 2014 and consisted primarily of two pictures: a Mennonite barn in Molotschna colony (here) and the nineteenth-century windmill located on the outskirts of Alexanderkrone, where Peter D and family lived for a few years (here).

All told, Buller Time has published 291 posts—in spite of the great hiatus of 2015. Thanks to all who show interest and support by visiting and reading and occasionally (!) commenting. According to Blogger, Buller Time has been visited 15,373 times since its launch. My own daily records show that around 25 people visit each day. Not bad for a bunch of often-landless hicks from Switzerland (?) by way of Poland and Volhynia and Molotschna and Lushton!

Thanks most of all to our ancestors, especially Grandpa Chris and Grandma Malinda, who not only gave us all life but also inspired the creation of this blog.
