What is the April A to Z Blog Challenge?
Every April, bloggers from all over the world participate in the April A to Z blog challenge, and you can too! To play along, all you do is make a blog post for each letter of the alphabet during April, then use the blog hop linky to visit as many other bloggers as you can.
This will be my 4th year in a row doing the A to Z blog challenge. I keep coming back because it’s so lively and fun! Plus, it’s a great way to find interesting new blogs to read.
What is the A to Z Theme Reveal?
The A to Z Theme Reveal was created to rev up interest before the challenge started. On a certain day (this year it’s March 21) A to Z bloggers are invited to post what their April theme will be.
My 2016 A to Z Theme is…
This year, my A to Z posts will take you on a vicarious quirky road trip with the theme of:
Offbeat Travel Pics!

I’m waiting
I am looking forward to a virtual road trip with you!
I don’t see much traveling in my immediate future, so I will be happy to travel vicariously with you. I just know you’ll take me to some interesting (and possibly spooky?) places. Onward to April!

Looks like a cool theme! Can’t wait to see your pictures!!
I love to travel and was just down in Austin a few weeks ago. Offbeat Travel Pics sounds like an awesome theme. My blog is a destination blog and I’m hoping to get inspired by your challenge photos, as well as survive my first a-z challenge. Looking forward to seeing your pictures.
I love reading travel posts and the offbeat really has me curious! See you in April :)
