This week's best o' blogs

Oooh, the best of blog competition is getting mighty fierce. This week we have one runaway winner and a close runner-up:

• Runaway winner: Free Blog # 7 from Dropshots
• Close runner-up: Hike from Hell from This is my life

You'll notice that both of this week's chosen blog-posts are story-style posts: readers, like small children, are enchanted by stories, so feel free to share your horror stories, success stories, and every sort of story in between.
