During these first few months as a blogger, I’ve encountered friendly neighboring blogs on or about Roanoke and which are written by fellow residents of this area. Some of them you may know or already follow, but just in case I’ve been thinking about a way to spread the word on these blogs here and this is what I’m going to do:

As I come across a blog with unique and relevant content I’m going to add a link to their site on my sidebar under the new heading of “Local Blogs”

Also (starting today and continuing every so often) I’m going to highlight a few of my favorite recent posts from these blogs.

So, without further delay welcome to the first edition of the Roanoke Blog Roundup!
