Wulfgar! has announced the winners of this year's Montana Weblog Awards, and Watermark is tied with Raven's Nest as the Most Creative Montana Blog. This is company I am proud to be in. I'm also well pleased with Wulfgar!'s observation that it's pretty obvious that Mike, Sharon and a certain Sam from a certain creek have a very broad readership.
I'll post the complete list of winners below the cut -- where you should go, for some enriching discoveries -- but first, a few thank-you's:
- to Wulfgar!, for taking on what must be both a fun and an exasperating task, honchoing this now annual event
- to all of you who took the time and interest to check out Montana's offerings
- and to all who voted for Watermark

Congrats -- and thanks for the kind linkage as well! Hope you're staying warm and dry; I'm about to head out and see what yesterday's heavy rain and hail did.
